Can you give some examples? I’m curious.

Ok, as I've mostly play Dungeon World and hacks recently...

DW: Unlimited Edition: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1pv6kVVJhbJi1vr8hVeWh1NqrDQJKgY1B/view

Homebrew World: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1oLQ6QUT9LgOZuzoB_YqUaCjfPGYEOlud/view

Not the best example cause DW tries to mimic D&D to some extent, using words like "Alignment", "Good", "Lawful" etc but I'll leave it here too, just for comparison...Dungeon World: https://dungeon-world.com/downloads/Dungeon_World_Play_Sheets.pdf

As you can see, this kind of alignment has two parts, (kinda) vague name and very specific description, which tells what character should do to gain XP. But sure you'll gain XP for doing something that fits well with "vague" name.
