Ideal Consequentialism

Ideal Consequentialism is a normative ethical theory within consequentialism that evaluates actions or rules according to their alignment with an ideal standard of optimal outcomes, typically defined by a maximally desirable state of affairs such as the greatest net balance of good over bad consequences, rather than by actual foreseeable results.
