I think the first premise is false
Because in evolution, we would've gained it simply because it was beneficial to us without any bearing on whether we actually know it to be objective or not. Evolution would've just gave us a sense of praise without any bearing in a objective reality of praise, we would not know whether it's objective or not.
But that doesn't answer the question, it's just an assertion that if this thing is an evolved trait then it isn't objective. But you go to no effort at all to justify that assertion- leaving aside your misunderstanding of how evolutionary traits develop and remain in populations- nor do you make the case that what you're saying is the only way to gain a firm grounding for these traits. It's a false dichotomy.
