that’s like saying that human life is a far larger goal than physics
you can’t just hand wave it away because you deem human life to be “worth it”. it exists and it’s a real problem, and it’s a complex problem even with unlimited money

no, it’s not. it’s literally saying saving a human life is a larger goal than logistics.
you can’t just hand wave it away because you deem human life to be “worth it”.
I can, because it is. If we don’t try everything to save a life and simply shrug the responsibility with the excuse of “sorry, but it’s just not logistically possible to save this person”, then what’s the point saving anyone?

I think I see what happened here. you only read part of this chain. you clearly missed the part where I said,
if we can’t bring the aid to the people, let’s bring the people to the aid
logistics is a tool used to solve problems. stop using it as an excuse to let people die.
logistics isn’t a goal; it’s problem that you have to solve to achieve a goal
If we don’t try everything to save a life
human life does have a value cap: would you plunge the world into borderline starvation in order to save a single life? no? well then a single human life is worth less than the happiness of the entire human race… the bar is somewhere above that
you’re trivialising a lot of complex things… public health has similar questions where the value of life and health is measured in aggregate
sorry, but it’s just not logistically possible to save this person
literally what happens every day in public health… resources are not unlimited, and so you have to make choices and trade offs
you only read part of this chain
nope i read the whole thing, its just that
if we can’t bring the aid to the people, let’s bring the people to the aid
is still a logistics problem… public transport is a logistics problem, shipping is a logistics problem, air schedules are a tiny part of the air travel logistics problem
moving people and things to where they need to be at the time that they’re needed is logistics
logistics is a tool used to solve problems. stop using it as an excuse to let people die.
logistics is a problem space that you need to solve before you achieve outcomes: it comes before, not after and you can’t start without solving logistics problems
in terms of distribution of medicine and aid, it’s basically the only problem that needs solving: we have plenty of food, we have plenty of medicine, and not for profits aren’t wanting for these things… they’re wanting for ways to get it where it’s needed
