Yeah, I know what the is ought problem is. Which is why I was confused when I thought you were saying there wasn't an is-ought distinction, but you seem to be admitting that there is one now, so no worries. The goal strategies you mention only work within a framework of aristotelian teleology. They require a final purpose. Without the teleology there is no way to distinguish between competing oughts. The institutional facts approach has feck all to do with "scientific morality".
As for the psychology/biology stuff, well, what can I say, I assumed that you thought facts about our psychology are facts about our brains, and hence our biology - I apologise, I'll try to remember that you are a dualist from now on.
