Okay. And that's a good indication that harm based moral systems don't work.

It's up to you to suggest what those other relevant facts might be, if you wish to contend....as you do...that infidelity is wrong as a matter of fact.
I already explained why open marriage cannot be right, it betrays commitment. Commitment is by definition not admitting any third party at any stage.

Aw, that's touching. I don't know if you really think this stuff through. The thing is, a caring husband would prefer commiting to his one and only spouse, rather than pick up these values from a (bitch) third party being around.

I am aware they exist, pal. The thing is, these people are engaged in an immoral, invalid engagement, no matter how sweet and fantastic their *relationship* is. If you feel like you need to take into account every existing relationship out there you think is too cute to rule out, you might want to consider purchasing a new, more efficient moral system.
Maybe you need to hear the gentle sex's opinion about bringing in third parties to learn commitment.
