Light Side/Dark Side isn't good/evil either, though.
"I served in the Imperial military for years. Recognize my service and grant me trial by combat!" "Sure." Dark Side. "No, I'm just going to kill you." Dark Side. "No, you'll rot in that cell." The cruelest of the three. Also Light Side.
"We don't have to fight. Just let me bury myself, and my unconscious student who cannot object to this plan because he's unconscious, alive." "Okay." Light Side. "Are you kidding? No!" Dark Side.
I get the impression you're mainly talking from an Imperial Agent standpoint. I can't speak to that much--my Imperial Agent is still on early Dromund Kaas--though if it's appropriate for the game to assume, "You must be loyal to the Empire or at least have the desire and ability to fake it incredibly well or you'd never have made it to the field" for any class, it's Imperial Agent. For a bounty hunter, you never have to be loyal to the Empire, though you do become extremely unwelcome in the Republic and thus have at least as much reason to be invested in the Empire's victory as a Jedi would have to be invested in the Republic's. And for a Sith, by the end of Chapter Three, you don't work for the Empire, the Empire works for you, and if the Imperials you deal with object to you ordering them to be unusually merciful, they can choke on it...sometimes literally.
