I'll tell you what the general thought is.

Just take Arima's example & put it in practise with Kaneki.

Symbolically: Kaneki compared to a standard human or standard ghoul, is like a giant flame burning away it's energy at an incredibly fast pace; strong & captivating, full of energy but only for a very short time, while the general populace has a small flame that doesn't waste too much energy too quickly.
