Techno at that point was providing hospitality and protection under a moral obligation, with an expectation of equal understanding that just wasn't there. This is part of what made Tommy siding with Tubbo again such a betrayal to Technoblade. Importantly, xenia is rooted in the importance of reciprocity, and Techno greatly values reciprocity. Xenia is a Greek principle of hospitality or "guest friendship" focused on providing protection and generosity to guests by moral obligation as the host. Technoblade explicitly states on the dsmp (i think around when tommy shows up in his house) that he follows the principle of Xenia. Hospitality: this is another one I really want to discuss. Heals zombie villagers, gets better deals from it, trades, leaves. But still, the interactions are transactional. Anyways, Technoblade trades in and out of his established trading hall, foregoing more efficient trades for the value of an established community. A bit of a tangent, but Techno has more respect for mobs than most players, to the point where it's noticeable in his playstyle, and occasionally at disadvantage to him. It was one of the few cases I saw of a minecrafter treating villages like established communities, where you go because of their skill in a trade and respect the villagers for their established community, and then find sources for other materials on your own. And he didn't set that up because there was a village nearby that already had farmers. When he was setting up his trade system in dsmp he didn't set up farmer villagers even though he almost exclusively ate golden carrots. Trade with villagers: I think what started this idea for me was the amount of time he spends in villages and also my mental association of Techno and piglins.
