For example, it's my opinion that hitting little kids with sticks is a bad thing, and that opinion will motivate me to stop someone who is doing it.

Without opinions, we are simply calculators.

Optimal actions are computable on probabilities.

(B)

One may disregard another's opinion, by noting relevant FACTS (absent opinion), that may upend said opinion.

('C')

Beings are calculation machines, absent opinion, or containing such.
