Beautifully explained. I see two possible directions for further development:
Relativity and quantum mechanics suggest that physical reality is fundamentally different from any intuitive model we can construct. Does this challenge any of the article’s assumptions on the relation between reality and philosophy? Spoiler alert: I don’t think so, but there are a couple of issues worth addressing.
I agree that morality involves understanding consequences and acting to produce beneficial outcomes. The open question remains: to what extent is “beneficial” subjective versus objective?
