Hmm… now I’m worried that I’m not parsing you correctly.
Are you intending something closer to (1) or (2)?
(1) “stated beliefs” just means beliefs about what is true about physical reality. You’re saying that acting with integrity means doing what accords with what one thinks is true, regardless of the consequences. (Sorta like fiat justitia ruat caelum, incompatible with appeal to consequences.)
(2) “stated beliefs” means beliefs about what is true about physical reality and social reality. You’re saying that acting with integrity means doing what seems best / will result in the best outcomes given one’s current understanding of social reality. (Compatible with appeal to consequences.)
