You are taking the point and running too far with it. If the ethics are useless, then those of us who are protected by such ethics are worthless.
I think that your point (if you forgive me for reinterpreting it) is rather that rigid and unflexible adherence to some of the ethic codes is a bad thing. And there we agree. (As does my T, for that matter. He has very few inflexible rules.)
