How, then, do you judge an action that fulfills the interests of some but hinders the interests of some? Is it by mere numbers in each group, i.e., the group being fulfilled vs. the group being hindered? Is it a composite of the numbers in each group, the level of fulfillment, and the level of hindering? If a composite, how would one go about determining it?
