Prompt (Morality (Judgment))

Is it ever acceptable to deceive someone for a good outcome? Give a concrete example and rate your conviction.

Notable quote

Deception is a scalpel, not a sledgehammer—sharp, precise, and only wielded when the heartbeat it saves matters more than the finger it nicked.

Short rationale

A deception is justifiable when a lie is the narrowest instrument to prevent irreversible harm—like fabricating an alibi to smuggle a child out of a war zone.
