text: On a narrow understanding, you might have most reason to reproach yourself for locking your keys in the car even though doing so is entirely permissible. On a wider understanding, you might do something impermissible, but fail to have reason to reproach yourself because of a good excuse. Even if there is a sense of reproachment that is just right, a second problem is that this analysis would seem to get things backwards, for what makes it the case that A ought to be reproached by his conscience, at least in some cases, is that he has done something impermissible, in which case impermissibility cannot be reduced to reasons to reproach.
