Yes, this is exactly my point. This is why I am diffident of "bright"
conversions brough along by "moral" reasons, consequentialist
conclusions, and so forth.

The argument that monotheistic religions should be preserved because
"they are good for societies" would be unacceptable even if (and of
course it is a very big "if") it were true.
