Allowed? No more like he saw the problem and also saw that no one else was going to do something about it, instead of just letting the scenario play out where maybe trillions of lives were lost and planets irrevocably damaged he sought out the most rational logical and evenly random solution that benefited everyone on average.
As for the people that got dusted well they would have died eventually, so no problem.
