Well, I am not sure if I can see the counterintuitiveness(?), because
> pleasure/enjoyment (and the absence of pain),
> Say you’re a surgeon. You have 5 patients who need organ transplants, plus 1 healthy patient who is compatible with the other 5. Should you murder the healthy patient so you can distribute his organs, thus saving 5 lives?
How is murdering a guy, not painful for the guy? So I guess that's clear how utilitarianism handles that
I think if we consider the frustration and pain there is nothing that is not clear
