I have read quite extensively on the subject.
Just because I disagree with you and your basic premise does not mean I misunderstand it.
I believe in putting things as simply as possible. Einstein once said something along the lines of(not sure if he was quoting or not) "if you can't explain it on the back of a postage stamp you don't understand it".
You believe using "right and wrong" as the basis of making decisions is "wrong".(though I'm sure you will term it something else, the end result is the same regardless of the word you choose) You believe using a "more advanced set of concepts and a "better" moral theory" as the basis of making decisions is "right".(again, I'm sure you will term it something else, the end result is the same regardless of the word you choose)
What's to not understand?
