Significant instead is the texture of personal experience: different according to social position.

Should I take that as you meaning that we don't actually care about things, that the experience of caring is a construction of our internal PR-officer so to speak? I'm somewhat sympathetic to a version of that but not as a complete theory, I think.

No; rather, that the caring-about is not meaningfully summarized by “values.” It’s too fine-grained.
