This is why I feel like I'm transitioning, over time, from value ethics to deontology. Value ethics are really susceptible to this paradox. But if I can induce what appear to be my principles from my value-ethics instincts, and then, as an exercise, try to reason out from my principles and act accordingly, then perhaps I am more consistent. That's if you see being consistent as an axiom to try to always meet. A lot of people don't, and I don't know how to argue with them.
