It just depends on if "should" is interpreted as "what would best fulfill my wants now" or "what would best fulfill your wants now" (or as something else entirely).
We can't make sense of ethical language until we realize different people mean different things by it.
What if "should" is interpreted as "Instantiators of decision theories similar to this one would achieve a higher value on their utility function if similar decision theories would yield this action as output"?
