You're never going to remove the humanity out of a human being. To use more language from mathematics; All things being equal,if all that is left of subjectivity is that we share a nearly identical genetic code, we're talking about a concept that is effectively objective (aardvarks would disagree).
Interesting quote from the wiki link:
"In its first forms it was called 'intuitionistic logic'" (page 31). "In this kind of logic, the statements an observer can make about the universe are divided into at least three groups: those that we can judge to be true, those that we can judge to be false and those whose truth we cannot decide upon at the present time" (page 28)."
This would leave things like russels teapot, just as one example, far too much validity for me to feel that it would be productive to the organization and advancement of knowledge. I prefer "pics or it didn't happen".
