Jul 25, 2014 at 8:42 | comment | added | user50720 | +1. Thanks. Would you please explain in more on detail why this is 'essentially not (very) different from these examples'? I now apprehend the meaning of my sentence, but I still find the construction confusing. Will you please to respond in your answer, and not as comments? | |

'What there is a reason to do is different from what should be done, all things considered' would more normally be phrased along these lines: 'The fact that reasons can be found for doing something doesn't guarantee that it's the wisest course of action'. | |
