For most people, murder and children crying are a bad outcome for a plan, but if they’re what the planner has selected as the intended outcome, the other probable outcomes are presumably worse. Theoretically, the plan could “fail” and end in an outcome with more utilons than murder and children crying, but those failures are obviously improbable: because if they weren’t, then the planner would presumably have selected them as the desired plan outcome.

Or at least have the foresight to see that they have become likely and alter the plan such that it now results in utopia instead of murder.
