"A person might think" is the clue here.
I'll need more clues. People think alot of things, some of them are untrue. That a math problem refers to more than one value is not generally taken to mean that the solution is subjective. Amusingly enough, in most other fact assertions commonly accepted as fact assertions, and objectively true ones, the greater the number of referent facts and values the more compellingly true said statement is.
To wit, while help and harm get you alot, you'll probably need even more values to refer to in order to make compelling fact-alike statements about moral desert. I say compelling here in a metaethically neutral sense, where a statement can be true but not objectively so. A subjectivist will refer to more than just one of their opinions. A relativist will refer to more than just one of their societies' decrees. An objectivist will refer to more than just one (purported) fact of the matter in question.

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!
