There are worse things in the world than a little hypocrisy. Like fascism, for instance.
One should of course try to act in good will and good faith, but obsessively hewing to pure even-handedness can have disastrous results, and trying to appeal to such impulses is a favorite trick of these sorts of sh*tstains.
(This is in fact a great illustration of my stance
over here that utilitarianism and virtue ethics are both good and necessary in proper proportion, whereas deontology sucks donkey balls. FWIW.)
