I don't know anything about Christine Korsgaard, however, I think I might like to be Christine Korsgaard's friend if she is truly someone who would hold me morally accountable. I think she might sharpen me and improve my own moral leanings by making me aware and holding me accountable for things I do wrong, just as I would make her aware and hold her accountable for things she does wrong. Only in a moral relationship can friendship truly flourish.
