It's a bit naive. Rationalism has limits as well, including its first 
principles, and as one would expect it makes one of the self-evidently 
dumbest assumptions of all time: that the person doing the 
rationalising is themselves always purely rational.

Onno has to choose between his immediate good and the public good. That 
the choice is not a simple one for him is in itself admirable. I wish 
him the best possible outcome for his deliberations.

Cheers; Leon
