Well humans aren’t perfectly rational.

I wouldn’t think it moral to save my kitten over a random non-evil person, but I’d still do it.

It is a rational choice tho.

It wouldn't just hurt your partner, it would hurt you.

We know that following a "objective morality" the 10 people would be a better choice but it would hurt (indirectly) you.

You’re right. Maybe rational was the wrong word.

Humans aren’t perfectly objective.
