The author draws an analogy between manners and laws, arguing that just as people follow manners out of habit rather than fear of consequences, people obey laws because following them becomes customary, not because of ethical concerns or fear of punishment.

With both laws and manners, the author argues that people go along with the rules because doing so is what feels normal.

The author doesn’t mention any other customs, only laws and manners. There’s also no reference to how customs differ across different societies.

The author is concerned with explaining why laws are obeyed, not with what goes into adopting a new law.

This describes the similarity between laws and manners that the author references. In both cases, people follow the rules not because they fear the consequences of not following them, but because doing so is the normal, customary thing to do.

The author doesn’t tell us what specific behaviors are required by laws or manners. The argument is only concerned with what causes people to follow the rules.

The author says that people don’t obey laws because of their associated penalties, not that strict penalties don’t exist.
