I don't see that as a flaw of the ideology itself.
I have similar quibbles with other ideologies. Really, my strongest criticism is reserved for ideological purists who come in all shapes and sizes. To put it plainly, I believe all ideologies are reductive and lead to absurdities when broadly applied, particularly to other human beings.
Pragmatism is the approach I prefer. What separates it from an ideology is that it doesn't attempt to cram the world into a tiny box. It's a tool that would work even in an unreliable universe and it affords complex human beings the respect they deserve.
