Yes. Morals are made of a completely different substance from anything else, including concepts about the empirical world like "health." Fuzzy concepts about "morality" and fuzzy concepts about how to classify things based on their empirical features are not even the same type of fuzziness. This is philosophy 101.
It probably is Philosophy 101. But in Philosophy 202 you go back and review the overlap and interaction of the two.
