> Calling happiness subjective feels weird to me.
It’s subjective because it cannot be universally and independently measured.
It’s not possible to measure the happiness of two individuals such that I can compare them against each other quantitatively and define who of the two is happier.
I can do that, however, with basically every physical measurement.
