The strength of Sartrian existentialism is that
{ 1 } - it gives the puzzled, agonized individual no help in making a decision.
{ 2 } - it is an appealing illusion.
{ 3 } - it accounts for the actions of saints and heroes who go beyond rules.
{ 4 } - it destroys communal decision making.

{ 3 } - it accounts for the actions of saints and heroes who go beyond rules.
{ 4 } - it destroys communal decision making.
This is obviously not much of a strength, but the appeal of the illusion is based on the fact that an individual must take responsibility for his decisions.

It doesn't really account for these actions, for saints and heroes base their action on the rule of love, which Sartre thinks is impossible. Note that the authors say it "seems" to account for these actions.
