We as thoughtful human beings can consider non-extreme points where we find other optimizations that aren’t necessarily around profit or resiliency. We can create a new metric called “human progress mertric” where we consider profit as a strong driver but also put weight on things like resiliency and allow profit to slide a bit so our real goal is better achieved.
Rarely ever, IMO, are worthwhile goals entirely profit optimized or resiliency optimized. Some blend tends to be best, and sometimes you can even have both simultaneously (they’re not always inherently mutually exclusive, although those taking in the winnings may want it to be).
