“why wouldn't might make right?”

Don’t you know what relative means? Why do you assume it means "stupid"? Yes. Some people do believe that might makes right. And some people believe the earth is flat and that it is only 8000 years old and that people used to live for hundreds of years! But there are rational beliefs and there are ignorant beliefs. There are rational codes of conduct and there are ignorant codes of conduct. The fact that some people and some tribes have believed that might makes right does not mean that you need to champion that believe in your causes. Can you rationally support such a belief? Go for it...
