Your definition of exploitation does not seem immoral to me. If both parties actually do get a good deal, where is the immorality? How exactly can we have civilization at all without being able to work together?
Morality is an invention of man -- created so that civilization might be possible. If we can't work together and trade our skills with one another without being immoral, then what's the point?
BTW -- what in gods name is, "unequivocal tergiversation"?
