Perhaps we have different ideas of what “ethics” involves. To me, ethical reasoning is at its core a way of informally solving disputes by compromising among value systems. This is what Kant seems to be getting at with his talk of different “principles of rational agency”. We also include common human values as a part of “normative ethics”, but strictly speaking that should perhaps be categorized as morality.
