Code of Honor (Honesty), point value?

Honesty reflects how YOU behave and who you associate with.

It doesn't require you to rebel against a government or risk your life in protests. It doesn't require that you become lawless in lawless areas.

If it is lawful somewhere to kill a slave out of hand, perhaps only compensating the owner, YOU don't run around killing slaves for fun because it's "legal".

If you encountered someone about to kill a slave legally you might offer to buy the slave or trade for the slave... but you probably wouldn't murder the slave owner to prevent it.

If a slave owner is beating his slave, you don't interfere because it's legal... but if you should come into ownership of slaves somehow you wouldn't likely beat them and would free them as soon as legally possible.

You don't necessarily have to lead a slave rebellion... and if you are FROM a slave holding country where these things are common you might see no problem with any of them at all. It's about what YOU are used to the law and morality being.

If you grew up in Melniboné you're going to have a different take on Honesty than an Amish.
