I'm thinking. But keep in mind that I'm basically a would-be deontologist; I'm just not sure what my deontic ethics should be. If only I could get a consistent (?) and satisfying system, I'd be fine with missing out on direct utility. I know, for humans that's as impossible as becoming an utility maximizer, because we're the antithesis of "consistency".
