Human resources
Cannibalism, slavery, crafting with human skin, corpses: most pawns have a severe distaste for these things. If you let them happen in your colony it will impart significant mood penalties on many colonists.
In dire circumstances it can be necessary to use every resource, even the human ones. A number of traits can make this feasible as a core strategy for a colony. Some might even make it the preferable way.

Any of the 3 traits are suitable for butchering Humanlikes. However, if the like the products produced from that Butchering is another question altogether.
Psychopath
Has no issues seeing corpses or butchering them but still suffers penalties from eating Flesh or wearing Skin Clothing. However, he has no qualms about slavery and organ harvesting.
Bloodlust
The only one who doesn't mind seeing Rotting Corpses and also likes Human Skin Clothing. Does not like Human Flesh, Organ Harvesting and Slavery however.
Cannibal
Really likes to eat human flesh and also likes the clothing made from skin. Does not like Slavery or Organ Harvesting, however.
