I see two issues with that way of thinking:

- morality and ethics are a gradient and are fluidly getting defined as we evolve. Are you still immoral or apathetic if you use electricity generated from coal? Or are you saying we are all apathetic but this is the one instance you want to stake your argument on?

- almost all systems get misused over time: are all those makers apathetic? What about the intent of the hustlers using such systems?

Great, you've successfully diluted the statement with questions that are adjacent, if you squint.

Engineering work has an ethical element to it. I do not see how what you are your 'just asking questions' intersects with this.
