Yes, this strikes me as an important point. Itās a bit like how ideologically-motivated hate crimes are (I think correctly) regarded as worse than comparable āintentionalā (but non-ideologically-motivated) violence, perhaps in part because it raises the risks of systematic harms.
Many moral differences are innocuous, but some really arenāt. For an extreme example: the ātrue believerā Nazi is in some ways worse than the cowardly citizen who goes along with the regime out of fear and self-interest. But thatās very different from everyday āvalue disagreementsā which tend to involve values that we recognize as (at least to some extent) worthy of respect, even if we judge them ultimately mistaken.
