- dumbneurologist 9y agothank you for bringing this up; I wasn't aware exactly how high the costs of cheating really were. but it's tremendously important: what would we say about a person who killed or contributed directly to the killing of 38,000 people? your fact seems less "real" because it's a statistical individual, but they are morally equivalent.
