Thanks for this analysis Tim. There’s still a lot of work to be done with how to actually go about, as you put it, evaluating a theologian’s theology against the backdrop of his life. The principle is sound and clear, but I have yet to find any extended development of what that looks like in practice, aside from piecemeal discussions vis a vis specific theologians (eg Yoder and his ethics of the kingdom of God).
