I don't really have an opinion on the larger question, but: That kind of double standard is 'natural' enough that knowing about them won't make you stop applying them, and when the tendency was discovered in psychology, it was called the fundamental attribution bias (or error) for decades. I don't think it's been called that since cross-cultural studies indicated it was more complex than it seemed in western populations, but that people use different processes for judging their own actions and those of others, whether they want to or not? That remains an entirely uncontroversial thing to say. That's obviously orthogonal to whether it is beneficial or socially efficient, but on the other hand, there is no reason to believe that beneficence and social efficiency has anything do with whether it happens, either.
