The dilemma with these sorts of discussions always seems to come back to where the line is drawn between the personality and the disorder. Clearly there are some pathologies whose features manifest in ways that are dangerous (..to one's self and/or others) but it's not clear to me which of the criteria above rise from being facets of ordinary personalities and become truly pathological.

This seems to also coincide with other literature that describes those with SPD as being among the least likely to seek treatment.
