    Part of a larger discussion

    Reasons For

    1 perspective
    Reason for
    ?
    • 1.Autonomy involves not just making choices, but the meaningful availability of diverse deliberative pathways reflecting one's values.
      ?

      Think about whether this reason is strong or weak

    • 2.Justifying coercion to someone doesn't restore their capacity to consider options you've rendered normatively forbidden to them.
      ?

      Think about whether this reason is strong or weak

    • 3.The autonomy cost of foreclosed deliberation is distinct from and irreducible to whether coercion can be rationally justified.
      ?

      Think about whether this reason is strong or weak

    Reasons Against

    1 perspective
    Reason against
    ?
    • 1.All rights involve limiting others' options; if justified rights neutralize autonomy costs, the claim's conclusion doesn't follow.
      ?

      Think about whether this reason is strong or weak

    • 2.Normative unavailability of paths (via justified constraint) differs from cognitive/physical unavailability and may not diminish autonomy.
      ?

      Think about whether this reason is strong or weak

    • 3.If a person endorses the justifying reasons for constraint, their deliberative autonomy is exercised through that endorsement, not harmed.
      ?

      Think about whether this reason is strong or weak
