I disagree. My statement was intended to convey the idea that ethics
should be _utterly_ irrelevant as far as an end goal in how you design a
game, when doing it for a publically traded company. Publically traded
companies have a mandate to create shareholder value, and any other goal
(such as creating an 'ethical' game) is negligent management.
