I get that, but I find that kind of thinking achieves nothing practical because it's endlessly scalable, and hence the tie in knots problem because it starts justifying "well I just need to extract another 500% profit because then I can really start helping." and as soon as an immoral justification is accepted it's very conflicting. Obviously this is not a blanked outcome, but it seems to be where the wealthy SBF types wander into, especially if their wealth is not entirely 'clean' in the first place. Reminds me of arguments like, say, the Sacklers' opioid crisis isn't all bad because they donated to charity, we should appreciate the good that came.
