Frankly, I kinda like the "this and this are bad; everything else is fine, have at it to your taste" aspect of "an it harm none...". Not everyone's moral imperative is identical, and it leaves enough wiggle room for different people to find different paths to morality. The fact that it doesn't prohibit being a lazy bum is a price I'm willing to pay for not straightjacketing someone into a specific and possibly outdated interpretation of what's moral.
In morality, specific too often leads to dogmatic. And if there's anything I think the world could use less of, it's dogma.
