Two important problems facing the view that moral uncertainty can affect how we ought to act are the regress problem - the problem that we will be uncertain not only about typical moral questions, but also about which approach to moral uncertainty is correct, and so on ad infinitum (Sepielli 2013) - and the problem of intertheoretic comparisons - the problem that there seems to be no principled ways to make comparisons between different moral theories (Nissan-Rozen 2015).
