But, they fail to isolate that moral variable. Isolating moral variables is extremely hard, especially when dealing with something as ethically reactive as death.
Secondly, do you accept the possibility that a moral of ethical system need not be "complete"? A "complete" moral or ethical system is capable of comparing the morality of every choice put to it.
