That’s overly simplistic. Two people might have the same motivations and goals but disagree about the most effective way of achieving those goals. If you think that’s not the case, you should give an argument to that effect. If you think it doesn’t apply in the particular case that we all know you have in mind, you should give an argument to that effect.
