Human emotion has an incredibly wide spectrum...Emotions cannot be made so basic - This over simplification demeans the value of those emotions. Our capacity for such emotion is part of what makes us human in a psychological sense. This chart is like something a psychopath references in order to blend in with society. "

Slightly off topic, but I love how half of what Johns is trying to sell as emotions aren't actually emotions. Will, love, compassion, greed, maybe even hope, none of those are actually emotions, but deeper or completely different psychological processes.

First of all, I agree with @Calvin on almost EVERYTHING! I only disagree in the last post! See, most people complain that Willpower and a few others in the Emotional Spectrum (from now on ES), are NOT, by FAR, Emotions. I do not think that the stretch is in considering the Willpower an Emotion, but considering the ES an EMOTIONAL Spectrum. If you consider what Henshaw says when he was being interrogated by the Guardians, in the first issue of the Sinestro Corps War, "Without life, there will be no place for anger, greed or fear", as to what Ganthet and Sayd respond "There will be no place for hope or compassion. - Or love." This was not just a random talk about life. This was the very foundation of what Life, embodied by the White Lantern, is. Those parts are a portion of life in a very basic level. So the E in ES should not be Emotional but, I don't know, Existencial Spectrum.
The plot DOES makes sense, although a little bit Care Bears sometimes...And Geoff Johns is not a genius, but the whole Second War of Light concept was very entertaining, which is the basic use of a comic. 
It is very interesting to imagine how would other persons organize such ES, since those associations are purely circumstantial and culture-bond. Basically, it's up to each individual imagination. 
 
There is a post in a blog that you can check in the Emotional Spectrum  entry here at Comic Vine,  How would you redesign the emotional spectrum?  by  PumpkinBomb  that you should check out. I believe he took a lot of ideas from Plutchik's Wheel of Emotion to build his personal view of the ES, and it is really good, speaclly the part with Light and Dark sides of each color, even though these are very jedi-esque, as I have pointed out. It would mean that not all Green Lanterns for instance are good guys. They can be full representatives of the Corps and still be really good villains. 
 
I gotta go now, but I will return to talk more.
