Agree because morality doesn’t refer to a single level of abstraction. I don’t necessarily hold people responsible for when their decision theory doesn’t reach all the way up to platonic forms of cooperation because most people haven’t had that modeled for them such that they can do it. More colloquially, people lie because they are afraid. They are afraid because their ability to meet their basic needs feels fragile. This feeling of fragility is only loosely entangled with reality and much more entangled with a limited range of strategies they know about.
