Of course it's uncomfortable.  It's almost always
uncomfortable when the consequences of exercising
one right interferes with other rights.

But the ethical solution isn't to throw up one's hands
and say, "Oh, well, it can't be helped" so as to avoid
the discomfort.  The ethical solution is to find the
least-bad compromise and just tolerate the discomfort.
