Agreed on all counts. In fact, it doesn't look like we disagree at all, judging from your comment.
Oh good!
When you started out by saying "never do this," I concluded otherwise.
I'm pleased to discover I was wrong.
Well, I think I'd stand by what I said originally. Though I guess I'm counting on no one reading that as the exceptionless proposition 'for all x such that x is a case of using positive reinforcement without someone's knowledge, x is unethical'. Likewise, if someone asked me, I'd say 'Don't ever shoplift, it's unethical.' Though I wouldn't want or expect anyone to read that as 'all cases of shoplifting are, without exception, unethical.'
OK. I apologize for misunderstanding your original comment.
Quite alright, I've enjoyed the discussion.
