Maybe the concept of "winning" should be a little more complex.   The
usual meaning requires an exclusive question, and all situations in
nature seem to provide large numbers of opportunities for framing them.
I prefer asking "what happened" rather than "who won", and then sort
through how that strikes my values.

As I usually say it, the point is more that everyone is a 'winner' if
you just select the right point of view...  Nope, it doesn't quite tell
me what to say to people who's only interest is in 'who won'.
