Hello,
Yes! That’s the concept! Thank you!
If possible, I would like to apologize for misusing the concept of “utilitarianism” for what should have been “reciprocal altruism”.
For the sake of the discussion, please assume that my original comments have been amended to reflect this.
Not to worry. When I started around these folks, I was mistaking their use of “altruism” for what we call “altruism” in ethics, which is a different animal entirely. That’s one reason we try not to argue too hard about mere definitions.
Aye, thank you.
It is a comfort to me to know I can have my misconceptions knocked out of me in a gentle and civil way here.
I think I’ll enjoy learning from this community.
