'nobody disputes it's the equivalent' is the definition.
I can't tell whether this defines the answer.

'a deadly sin' is the wordplay.
'deadly sin' becomes 'greed' (greed is a kind of deadly sin).
'a'+'greed'='AGREED'

'of' acts as a link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for agreed that I've seen before include "Consented, settled" , "Was fitting" , "Consented and concurred" , "Expressed willingness" , "Tallied - reconciled" .)

I've seen this clue in The Globe and Mail.
