you've begun with a moral intuition about something that seems obviously evil and then you've used a bunch of math to transform it into a weapon against a different moral intuition that seems more reasonable

i could just as easily reverse this. invert it to show that since a human life plausibly outweighs the 10^100 shrimp, a bag of skittles must outweigh 10^10 shrimp. Heck, given the orders of magnitude, *one* skittle might outweigh 10^10 shrimp. If that feels horrifying to you.. well sorry, clearly your moral intuitions are faulty and you should update based on math

why do you privilege one moral intuition over the other
