"utility maximization" is far too narrow to accommodate the limitless
range of peaceful, non-social individual motivation.

Okay, but it includes that.  Note that "outliers" want freedom, too.

Don't attempt to make them.  Consensus is rare, and when it does occur
(no dissenters), "collective decision" is not needed anyway.

[In a later posting:]

The point is that "outliers" will not tolerate having their peaceful
behavior bound by others' political decisions.
