Fair enough, I don’t either. But there are some non-hedonic things that I have some intuition are valuable independent of hedonics—it’s just that I reject this intuition upon reflection (just as I reject the intuition that happiness is valuable independent of relief of suffering upon reflection). Is there anything other than hedonic well-being that you have an intuition is independently good or bad, even if you don’t endorse that intuition?
I don’t have the intuition that scientific discoveries are valuable independent of their use for sentient beings.

Yeah, to some degree I have egalitarian intuitions pre reflection and some other small non utilitarian intuitions.
