That description is my conception of morality, and I conceive of it that way for reasons that have to do with practicality and utility. It's also influenced by evolutionary psychology.
The problem is, you began the thought with "My question is only vague if your conception of morality is vague.", then continued by defining your own.
Thus, you do the following:
1) Assume our morality is vague, as well as imcompatible with the discussion, simply because you've erroniously decided this is the scource behind percieving your question as such.
2) You've set your own morality above another's(as you do not believe your question is vague).
My conception of morality is anything
but vague, yet your question remains so.

You sure have a natural way of sounding like you're making a statement.
"So you're a wise guy, huh?"
I've
never heard or seen anyone using "huh" after a question without being sarcastic, confrontational, or "matter of fact".

Discussing
from a perspective and discussing
about a perspective are two different things entirely.

Or, so you've assumed.
