This is a genuinely difficult and interesting question that I want to provide a good answer for, but that might take me some time to write up, I’ll get back to you at a later date.
I worked as an algorithmic ethicist for a blockchain project for several years, and this was (arguably?) my central professional bedevilment. It doesn’t really surprise me that you have a hard time with it… I asked it because it is The Tough One, and if you had an actually good answer then such an answer would (probably) count as “non-trivial research progress”.

I like that you didn’t say something glib :-)
