This is the first time you've mentioned people in general. I think that increases the chances of confusion, not decreases.
My initial point was simply saying "Those people are better than those people, pointing out two diffferent groups. What is confusing about making one of those groups "All people", other than defining "people"?
Because if I can't get an AI to discriminate between people and not-people for non-edge cases, I'm not going to try to get it to figure out moral and immoral.
