I think the self-defense example points up a salient problem with equating harm with damage if damage is justified or desired, then it becomes moot from a moral standpoint. Damage is only harm if it is both unwanted and unjustified, but both counts require a value judgment. Value judgments are inherently subjective. You do not determine desirability or justification by objective facts. Therefore, the harm standard is inherently subjective.
