You take a utilitarian view of justice. Okay. I do not think it comprehends what is commonly meant by the term, regardless of whether such usage has a cosmic warrant, or merely reflects our idealization of "the way things should be". The way it functions in our "deep culture", justice is the proper ordering of things, and retributive justice is a way to restore the balance sheet once evil has been done. Justice is not merely socially useful, but reflects what we most care about as human beings, and our attempt to uphold those values in order to inform human life with meaning.
