Personally, I would prefer to have the definition of "morally good" "morally good" include consequential goods, deontological goods, and virtue goods.

All of those already include the pre-theoretic notion of "good".

Correct. Which is why I think it is a mistake if they are not accounted for in the post-theoretic notion.
