I agree that any "closed system" of morality is a bad idea, in my opinion.
We learn and we grow. I don't know why you'd try to stifle that.
It does indeed sound like social Darwinism, which is utterly insane to me. How the word "should" is even applied in such situations, I don't know. We "should" be maximally selfish at the expense of others? Says who, nature? I doubt any reasonable person would find this compelling anyway.
