The difference is that ethics are not falsifiable. This leads me to believe there are no ethical truths.
If there are no ethical truths, there's nothing wrong with assuming that there are, so you might as well assume there are.
I think you're mistakenly equivocating between "wrong with" referring to morality and rational justification. If there are no moral truths, then of course it's not immoral to believe there are moral truths, but it's not epistemically rational, which is the relevant point among people who care about epistemic rationality.
It's relevant to what they care about, but what does it matter if their desires are fulfilled?
