I don't completely disagree, but talking of inherent value in this way robs the phrase of any meaning. I don't think people are mouthing empty phrases, so in some sense "inherent value" must refer to something other than literal, objective, intrinsic value. I've been trying to think about what that is the past day, but haven't really arrived at anything. Do you think when people use the term inherent value they are just talking nonsense?
