The term "punctilio" has been wielded in literature to convey a range of meanings, from strict adherence to honorific standards to dismissive attitudes toward social formalities. In T. Smollett’s work, it is used to express a rigorous observance of honor, sacrificing one’s deepest ideals in its name [1]. Fyodor Dostoyevsky, however, contrasts this with a scene where the character blatantly disregards even the slightest consideration for customary formalities, underscoring a willful defiance of convention [2]. Washington Irving employs the word to denote the careful completion of preliminary procedures, emphasizing a respect for proper decorum [3]. Meanwhile, Samuel Richardson presents it as a detail that, though it may seem trivial to some, carries significant personal importance to others, highlighting the subjective nature of social rituals [4].
