Agreed. Morality is for determining what one has most reason to do or want. Clearly asking after the fact "did they do the wrong thing?" doesn't mesh well with what morality is for. But the finger-wagging sorts of moralists might not agree.
True, although finger-waggers do say things like "Well sure, it might have turned out okay this time. But that doesn't mean it was a good idea."
