sensibleness

The book could have been all attitude, but it’s grounded in a commendable and surprising sensibleness.

Self-dramatisation, attention-seeking, shortcuts to fame, laziness, hormones, bad seed … there’s a clarity, a sensibleness, a sameness to them all, the inexorable logic of those convinced of their own rationality.

But “the ridiculousness or sensibleness of a program is really not for us to decide.”

Ms. Ricks gives her character a charming solid sensibleness.

SHE attributed such ideas to a British sensibleness.
