Without relaunching the whole discussion, there’s one thing I’d like to know: Do you acknowledge that the concepts you’re “giving up on” (‘transcendental’ freedom, value, and purpose, as you define them) are not merely things that don’t exist, but things that can’t exist, like square circles?
I only know that I believe they should exist. I gave up on figuring out if they could exist. Specifically, what I’ve “given up on” is a reconciliation of epistemic and instrumental rationality in this matter.
