I don't know who discussed it.

In one of the ST episodes or movies, I think Spock refers to it when they're in one of those no-win situations. Then Kirk says I rigged the scenario.

I favor the do-what-you-have-to-do approach with a no-other-option-greater good safety net.

It was in the second movie, the Wrath of Khan.

Within the confines of the parameters of the test, I agree. You do everything humanly possible to win.
