Thanks for commenting. I haven’t written about anything like that because my thoughts about it are rudimentary at best! I think you’re correct that these speculations are premised on some sort of moral realism (if I understand you correctly). To be clear, I really don’t know whether moral realism or anti-realism is more plausible. Just from a very shallow knowledge of metaethics, i think something like constructivism seems most plausible to me, but I’m not sure about how that maps onto the realism/anti-realism question.
