I think the core of what's unintuitive about the various paradoxes of utilitarianism is the idea that utility is unbounded. This clashes with how our brains work, where there actually is a bound on how strongly we can feel (positively or negatively) about any particular situation.

I think we underappreciate and cherry-pick constitutionality, what codification means in concert with historical context.

the United States Bill of Rights was ratified as a bundle of amendments and many of those amendments are expressed complementary to others, like stanzas of a poem.

for example, the 2nd amendment would not make sense without the 3rd and 4th elaborating on securing persons, homes, papers, and effects, and this was in response to the tyranny of the Insufferable Acts.

the 5th amendment would be too exploitable without 6th, 7th, and 8th corollaries. by themselves, any one would be reasonable but too weak to regulatory overreach that the others prohibit.

the 1rst amendment would not be able to prohibit the establishment of ideological law or reinforce peaceful assembly and petition in opposition, if the 10th did not reinforce displacement of those ideological contests to peerdom of the states or their constituencies.

eventually, cryptoeconomics must crystallize in a similar fashion, or it will become too brittle to be eternal. perhaps even these rights will be neglected to the point of dissolution, just like node incentives and network security can fade against the backdrop of the free market.

the point is to find equilibrium without denial or disparagement, and this  bundle is profoundly robust.

can you elaborate? 

physically, we have only so much immediate exposure to energy, which utility cannot exist without. sociologically, we can only tolerate so much utility before it hinders or harms other utilities. is pareto optimality an illusion?

same with constitutionality, all the better that laws are dispassionately bounded, and not captured by feelings
