Which is all to say, to address your example, making right choices for moral or ethical reasons (interestingly, have a mentee who is currently reading Kant's Foundations) may or may not result in goods, thus persist as vested ego-value.

Such goods, however, do not qualify as perquisitive ego-value, perquisitive receipts, absent a redemption through Frostean bargain. Not merely that a choice made all the difference, but that a choice made all the difference of delivering subsequent choice among all the perks.

This is the Protean and Faustian aspects of the Frostean bargain. A promised future that cannot be tied down to any one thing (Proteus) that is contingent on a deal with the devil (per Faust) that defines good choices, as good, retrospectively (Frost).

Importantly, a choice made on ethical or moral grounds isn't one that tends to be adjudicated retrospectively. One has a sense or justification, leading up to and in moment of moral/ethical choice, that it is good.
