You can be more specific with adjectives if context doesn’t adequately clarify what you mean.
Well, can. Problem is that people on LessWrong actually do use the term (in my opinion) pretty excessively, in contrast to, say, philosophers or psychologists. This is no problem in concrete cases like in your example, but on LessWrong the discussion about “values” is usually abstract. The fact that people could be more specific didn’t so far imply that they are.
