> We are selling 'utility credits'

I'm sorry but this is where you lost me. We should be democratising utility credits, not selling them.

Yes, if we can find a way to mine bliss utility simulation credits on our smartphones, we could offset personal moral failures.
Of course, in the beginning, it could only offset base actions like pointless violence and aggressive, rude behaviour. But in the future, as we hope to simulate more advanced brains, we could offset for instance cognitive dissonance, double standards, and perhaps one day even vanity!
This could massively save on the social security budget.
