Are you really giving up personal freedom if you’re consciously deciding not to do something out of consideration for others?

Usually it becomes a problem because you are infringing on someone else’s personal freedom. So it’s still about maximizing personal freedom in that case.

You're right. Thank you for adding a level of nuance for me to chew on!

Did not expect this reply on the internet. You’ve given me something to chew on as well.
