代词none具体指代了什么

He had a sweet and generous nature, and yet was always blundering; a real feeling for what was beautiful and the capacity to create only what was commonplace; a peculiar delicacy of sentiment and gross manners. He could exercise tact when dealing with the affairs of others, but none when dealing with his own. What a cruel practical joke old Nature played when she flung so many contradictory elements together, and left the man face to face with the perplexing callousness of the universe.

请教老师: but none when dealing with his own. - 这里的none应该是代词吧?问题是具体是如何指代的?

这里的none = but he could not exercise tact 吗?

这里是否可用notno, but not/no when dealing with his own 呢?
