I think this is basically right (I don’t think the upshot is that incomparability implies nihilism, but rather the moral irrelevance of most choices). I don’t really understand why this is a reason to reject incomparability. If values are incomparable, it turns out that the moral implications are quite different from what we thought. Why change your values rather than your downstream beliefs about morally appropriate action?
I think it’s a bad result of a view if it implies that no actions we perform are good or bad. Intuitively it doesn’t seem like all chaotic actions are neutral.
