I'm specifically referring to the universe of the show where there *is* a higher power, peoples' lives are evaluated, and the the kind of evaluation is oddly selective and can vary.

Yes, and I was mostly talking about D&D since you brought up alignment.

But even in a system where evaluation is oddly selective and can vary, the presumption is that there is still an objective force making those decisions, and which acts as the ultimate arbiter. That's not really competing systems as much as it is one system that has a whimsical judge.

There's also the argument that said judgements aren't really arbitrary at all, and that they're just being judged by standards far beyond human understanding, but that's an entirely different discussion.
