''"One can argue that Grey And Grey Morality is just a more optimistic take on Evil Versus Evil. This is just as true as Good Versus Good just being a more optimistic take on Grey And Grey Morality."''

Evil versus Evil conflicts are frequently explicitly evil, even going so far as to have demonic or traditionally villainous trappings. Gray And Grey conflicts can be virtually anything, including these White Versus White conflicts because there are ''shades of gray'' in the conflict. White versus White is altogether arbitrary.

''"Most heroes in White And Black Morality does this and worse."''
It's not so much about the actions in White And Black settings - the entire setting in such a case is designed to make the Black Side appear to be evil and wrong. It's a structural binary, good versus evil, with the entire narrative indicating that there is such an opposition and one side is flat wrong. Grey covers a work with ambiguity.

''"Is white impossible without black?"''
This is meaningless, as ''Ambiguity'' is not possible with both black and white present.

''"We can have Black And Black Morallity conflict (Evil Versus E Vil), but not White And White Morality Conflict (Good Versus Good)?"''
As explained above.
