I’m not advocating the idea that morality is value, I am examining the implications of what other people have said.
You wrote an article purporting to explain the Yudkowskian theory of morality, and, indeed the one true theory of morality, since the two are the same.
Hypothetically, making a few comments about value, and nothing but value, doesn’t do what is advertised on the label. The reader would need to know how value relates back to morality.
And in fact you supplied the rather definitional sounding statement that Morality is Values.
If you base an argument on a definition ,don’t be surprised if people argue about it. The alternative, where someone can stipulate a definition, but no one can challenge it, is a game that will always be won by the first to move.
