The golden rule tells you to treat others

    { 1 } - as they'd treat you if the situation were reversed.
    { 2 } - as they wish to be treated.
    { 3 } - as they treat you.
    { 4 } - as they wish to treat you.
    { 5 } - as they in turn treat others.
    { 6 } - as you want to be treated.

    { 4 } - as they wish to treat you.
    { 5 } - as they in turn treat others.
    { 6 } - as you want to be treated.

This has absurd results if the other person has irrational or inconsistent desires -- or if one person wants you to do A while another wants you not to do A.

3 is wrong. Please try again.

    { 1 } - as they'd treat you if the situation were reversed.
    { 2 } - as they wish to be treated.
    { 3 } - as they treat you.
    { 4 } - as they wish to treat you.
    { 5 } - as they in turn treat others.
    { 6 } - as you want to be treated.

This implies the law of retaliation: "If X hurts you, then hurt X." Even though this is quite different from the golden rule, the two are often confused.

This is like "Do good to good people and do bad to bad people." This isn't what the golden rule teaches.

6 is correct!

The golden rule tells you to treat others

    { 1 } - as they'd treat you if the situation were reversed.
    { 2 } - as they wish to be treated.
    { 3 } - as they treat you.
    { 4 } - as they wish to treat you.
    { 5 } - as they in turn treat others.
    { 6 } - as you want to be treated.

Exactly! This alone is required by consistency (by conscientiousness and impartiality).
