“Immoral from a societal perspective” seems like a Utilitarianism (greatest good for greatest number”. This may appeal to your analytical mindset, but I think it is a brutal totalitarian philosophy that can justify anything in the name of the societal perspective.
And “you do you…I prefer moral” is obnoxious and smug.
You may find yourself in a very small society with this approach.
