agreed. I've never thought that fiduciary duties meant tossing out all morals and considerations of right/wrong to the point that one must make any decision in a way that will make the most money within legal bounds. I'm no economist or lawyer, but I've always taken it that the duty is to not do dumb shit that will lose money and to do things that protect it. The reading of "make money at all cost" just seems like a strained interpretation, yet it's trotted out very frequently with not enough push back.
