It seems to me that the situation is this: everybody does everything for a reason (surprise, surprise), but they may not know it, you may not know it, it may not be what they say it is even if they try to be honest, and it may not be a good reason.
That, unfortunately, is not a neatly summarisable point, and the question of what moral to draw from it is not trivial.
