Matters how? If someone has the best of intentions but ends up creating a bad outcome, it’s still more important to fix that than to change the opinion of, say, a closeted bigot who has no effect on anyone else. (Yes, real life has more shades of gray than that, and both things are important in practice, because bad intentions don’t tend to lead to good outcomes while good intentions definitely can lead to bad outcomes.) As an aside, “I think plenty of people would say X” is not a very good way to phrase an opinion. It’s ok to say you would say X and argue for it, rather than ascribe the opinion to some undefined group of other people.
