I am many years late to the conversation, but this is fascinating. I think this is a good framework for explaining why taking moral theories to their logical extremes often yield unpalatable conclusions at odds with our moral intuitions - because they are overpowering our illogical cultural antibodies. It's still a good read after 10+ years :)
