Values need to be developed and decided, they aren’t already settled to merely be obeyed or pursued. If values are being developed not in accordance with the volition of their originators, they don’t have legitimacy. Originators of values must personally have a hand in developing them further in some way, and plausibly all they could do (in many possible situations) contributes to that to some extent. Thus values are in content closer to the world (or just a home, with more personal influence) you are living in and building (across many possibilities, to counteract path dependence), than to directives you must follow.
