Whether or not or you morally-should take me into account does not depend on your values, it depends on what the correct theory of morality is. "Should" is not an unambiguous term with a free variable for " to whom". It is an ambiguous term, and morally-should is not hedonistically-should, is not practically-should....etc.
Unless the correct theory of morality is that morally-should is the same thing as practically-should, in which case it would depend on your values.
A sentence beginning "unless the correct theory is" does not refute a sentence including " depends on what the correct theory "....
If the correct theory of morality is that morally-should is the same as practically-should, then "whether or not you morally-should take me into account does not depend on your values" is false.
Whether or not morality depends on your values depends on what the correct theory of morality is.
