Basically, what people call "ethical dilemmas" are badly weighted on one side by "I want this thing"

One side of the dilemma rarely has conflicts with, e.g. consent or beneficence, rather, it's an undemonstrated potential.

An ethical dilemma would be "I could demonstrably cure cancer if I did this thing that violated consent"
