Yeah, I don't disagree. Just to be clear I want to re-emphasize that I applaud you or any other organization that unilaterally takes steps like this. It is a good thing.

I just always think about the indirect incentives our choices make in the broader ecosystem. Some systemic problems can be solved by individuals incrementally making different choices, but I think some require larger organization and coordination. And, to some degree (but not enough to cancel out the merit of an individual moral choice) a choice to do the right thing can actually make it easier for others to exploit more.
