In most peoples lives there wouldn't be much of a difference. The only "worth" objective moral statements have is in what we might call a high stakes dispute between two competing moral statements. Say that the supposed moral status of homosexuality forms the justification for chemical castration of people getting caught while gay.
Saying "No, homosexuality is not objectively wrong, but the action which you are about to undertake on the basis of considering it even subjectively wrong -is- objectively wrong" shows the value of objective moral statements.
