In the ACG there is the spell Mark of Obvious Ethic with the short description "other creatures can determine the target's alignment." So, if alignment is ethics and not morals that could have some interesting implications.
Thoughts?

Ethics and Morals have a much fuzzier distinction than you seem to think. I've heard each referred to as both internal beliefs about right and wrong and externally applied codes of behavior...with which is which depending on the speaker.
So...even if you want to argue one being the objectively correct definition, that means nothing about which the creator of the item was using. Making the item's name meaningless for purposes of determining this.
