Considering I don't subscribe to such a simplistic philosophy that can't be the driving point of my questioning at all, your response makes no sense. Furthermore such a philosophy does not originate in Star Trek, SV is more individualistic and self-centered than most of the world (and I don't even live there anyway nor have any desire to), and life having value does not imply that all lives are the same value or that you can't perform addition on the values.
