When people talk about values getting better I think they mean that they have some core values and "improving" means they have a more accurate picture of what derivative values should be in order to maximize those core values.
The way I would spin the same point is: when values improve in coherence, they improve in rationality, which can be assessed independently of whether or not one endorses the core values.
