What % of the time do people tend to be 'morally right' about a controversial issue even if they're not 'factually right' about important, morally relevant aspects of the issue?

It's factually correct that one child's life is not worth more than another. It's morally wrong not to save/favor the life of your own child over any other. Effective altruism's impartiality is a rejection of valuation which makes it inconsistent with morality.
You're just saying that impartiality is inconsistent with YOUR morality.

Morality necessitates valuing, i.e. what's good/bad (or what's better/worse). Impartiality is punting that choice to claim moral superiority because 1. sometimes you make the wrong choice and 2. moral dilemmas are difficult esp for EAs who have nothing transcendent to guide them.
