If it's possible to produce CSAM that doesn't involve actual children and have a measurable impact in profitablity and demand of the real thing, leading to a net reduction in the harm done to children wouldn't you be on the wrong side of the argument you think you're making?

I would argue it's a rational take.
Can we agree the goal to reduce harm of children is good? Or only if the solution is comfortable to you?
