I'm pretty sure you don't need intuition to verify tissue damage or consent.
-and no, nothing about a person who'll spend their time arguing that a given moral schema is right -or- wrong strikes me as someone who is studiously avoiding objectivist statements.
I do feel like I should point out that we act this way even if it's not actually true, that your (and my own) leaning on fact alike propositions about morality might just be a tick of being human. I think you're looking at this the wrong way. You have a sea of moral propositions before you. You categorically reject them, and sometimes specifically reject them. So do I.

I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!
