I think it's simply that your definition is cheating is different from some others. I understand what you are trying to say, but the cheating code you are trying to talk about is an arbitrary one that people don't have to agree on.
It's just like letting friends cut into a line in front of you. Some people consider that OK, and some others don't. It's also like understanding when can or cannot a player steal bases in a blowout game. No two follow exactly the same codes.
It has nothing to do with if people understand the concepts or not. Even if they understand your brand of ethics perfectly, they don't have to follow you.
The frustration in explaining ethics is actually rooted at the fact ethics doesn't have to make sense.
