More relevant to the moral of the story—a number of the reasons the humans thought the baby eaters were evil, were reasons
the super happies thought the humans were evil, though to a lesser extent.
While the humans didn’t find the baby eaters noble w.r.t that different trait, or appreciate their ethos, the humans thought what they did was right, though the main character was shocked by the super happies because he’d never considered that path (the change w.r.t pain, as opposed to just pursuing ‘happiness’.)
Thank you very much for that explanation, the idea of differing ethical orderings makes a lot of sense especially in relation to the story.
I’ll be sure to check out your category theory posts, sounds very interesting!
