Not to derail the topic, but I do not find any trait impactful enough to draw me to it. I typically use athletic, creative, and genius for story telling, though. (They are incredibly bland, I admit. They basically just give random emotion buffs, so are arguably some of the worst choices, but again they are for story telling. Pretty much all traits feel aesthetic only for story telling.)
I admit I like the ideas behind the childish trait for playing with toys, but it does not extend to more developed things like voidcritters and still seeing the monster under the bed. Erratic is probably one of the more interesting treats, but it still ends up as random emotion buffs a lot of the time. The talking to random things is a nice touch, but not really impactful in my gameplay.
Things like jealous and loves family I usually only notice as a negative emotion buff. Sometimes which make little to no sense when they occur. Same with snob, etc.
Honestly, that is part of why I feel we do not typically get too many new traits. They all function fairly similarly, so distinguishing them becomes difficult.
