The middle ground fallacy is a logical fallacy. However, there is nothing inherently logical about taking any position either. Logic always serves a master; on most contentious issues, there are many people on both sides thinking logically, but they are simply making different values judgments. People who are Moderate Heroes tend to strongly believe in the role of diplomacy and compromise in governance and don't hold many strong ideological views. Moderate Heroism is very logical if you believe that the positions themselves are not as important as the process and making sure as many people are happy as possible with the result of legislation. If you are inclined to hold many strong ideological views, this can probably be frustrating. In the end this is probably pragmatism v. idealism in action.
