Do you "run them through" actual ethics, too?

Uhh.. do we really want to do ethics 101 ( and likely comparative religions based on your insisting all ethical considerations are universal across the human experience )? Please reconsider your statement, because it is not 'basically'; not by a long shot.
I don't know shit about ethics numbers. Nor do I believe in any comparative religions. All I know is that you claimed to do the following:

Bravo! Encore! Teach us, wise master!
See.. here is a problem. You say 'actual' ethics as if those were somehow universal and not ridiculously varied across the board. And I get it, you use the term, because a lot of readers will take it face value AND simply use their own value system to translate them into what agrees with them internally. I know, because I do the same thing when I try to not show exactly what I think to people at work. I just say sufficiently generic stuff to make people on both sides agree with a generic statement.
With that said, mister ants in the pants, what does actual mean to you in this particular instance?
