But this is more of an issue of human rights than trade parity between nations. No tariff is the simplest ground case for discussing different parities.

Any artificial restrictions on trade that we impose domestically, like minimum wage, or occupational health and safety requirements, are meaningless if we have no way of placing those restrictions elsewhere. I would argue exactly the opposite of what you have said, that tariffs are the natural way of expressing these restrictions internationally.
