I mostly agree except for one small point:
Some are by definition excesses:
Gluttony, excessive consumption
Sloth, excessive laziness
Greed, excessive materialism
Lust, excessive desire.
That's the point of the list as I understand them, they are all excessive demonstrations of normal human behaviours.
Whether it's officially removed or not, I will always consider lust a deadly sin.
