But isn't the idea of a semiautonomous person/group overseeing ethical concerns precisely to overcome the very problem you're pointing to, namely, to not make their decisions based on a competitive edge? In an alternative top-down organization like you are saying, why would the rational company leaders ever pick the ethical side of a dilemma if the other lemma is making more money? Or hire anybody who would make that "wrong" decision?
Like I can't understand this mindset where one says: "its clear the ethics team is getting in the way of us doing the business we could be doing, so its clear they are the problem." Isn't the friction the ethics team produces precisely their raison d'etre?
Like at what point can we all stop pretending that we are angry at woo-woo philosophy experts telling us "no," and admit we really just have a conscious which is at odds with overwhelmingly financial goals of this world.
