"Arbitrary" is a somewhat meaningless adjective to invoke regarding an entity with no intrinsic goals.

This may not provide much satisfaction to someone inquiring into morals. But then someone inquiring into morals may well do better to just think moral thoughts, rather than thinking about metaethics or reductionism.

I never did like "Arbitrary". Or this one, either. Really, the whole meta-ethics sequence is pretty useless [to me].
