Are you saying that I will never be convinced, or should never be convinced, by moral philosophy written by someone else?

No, but no one said anything about the Martians being convinced, or about the Martians being entitled to offer any opinion at all.

And why call the assertions arbitrary?

Because they are about how other people than the ones making the assertions should behave.
