You’re right again I think. As far as dislike of utilitarianism not entirely without cause in some cases; while “make ethics math” is a really good idea it seems surpisingly difficult to formalize without wierd artifacts—as a not insubstantial volume of posts on this site can attest. I imagine at least some of that resistance goes away as soon as someone perfects a formalism that doesn’t occasionally suggest outlandish behavior and has all the properties we want.
