Like what? Some subjective agreed upon goal, such as we shouldn’t do things that are harmful?

Uhm... but, at their base, aren't even 'Measurable observations' actually subjective?
An inch length is, effectivly, just some mutually agreed upon 'Thing'.
Meters are the same.
Astronomical units are... simply our agreed upon 'Earth orbital radius from parent star.' ?
Every one uses the agreed upon 'Standard'. But, at a base level, said standard us still arbitrary and kind of subjective.
Hope I'm making sense.
No, it’s just the language we use describe objective features of our world, to quantify things like length and height. My wife is 5 feet is as objectively true as the existence of two apples on my desk. 5 feet here indicates my wife’s objective height
