Nothing that lived and breathed was truly objective—even in a vacuum, even if all that possessed the brain was a self-immolating desire for the truth.
As someone who worked with government agencies for a time, including science-based ones, I quickly realized that “the information” is always malleable. That even the perspective by which “facts” are collected has subjectivity of some sort built-in. This is one reason why even in the hard sciences you see old theories become out-of-date. This isn’t a bad thing necessarily, but I like that the biologist recognizes that consciousness creates subjectivity.
