Is it possible to think of an action I could take, which would result in my death, which would be moral?
What you're saying here, at first glance, seems to say no... that anything I did to end my life would be bad by definition. But maybe I'm not seeing the nuances yet.

A hell of a lot of soldiers died to end the Holocaust. It was pretty directly harmful to their wellbeing, in that they got shot and died young.
In what way, according to your system, was this moral? Is it possible that in certain cases, good actions lead to the death of the person who does them?
