You want people to see a future they can’t see, yet when they do the moral thing

You want people to see a future they can’t see, yet when they do the moral thing, but it allows a secondary effect that’s negative, you expect them to have seen it from. your advantage of hindsight. I think this is rather silly justification for your wants and priors.
Problems were real, serious, and people died in large numbers. The people sought a solution that would prevent those problems reoccurring. They had moral intentions, moral designs, and pursued them at great cost to them and their people in an attempt to avoid the greater costs they’d just experienced – as did the world.
So yes, I think you’re silly. 😉

Still think you’re brilliant, talented, charming, likable, and in my case, lovable – and mostly right – about anything at least where you don’t have some vested interest in the world being other than it was for the reasons it was to the people who were there at the time. 😉
