Jon ,
that's the crux of the problem .
Again "How does she manage to quantify all the most important values to humans .
Nobody has ever managed to do so and never will .

You don't need quantify all to George. The relative value of this or that consideration (using a common measure) is enough to allow comparison of options. Thanks for the chat: It's been useful.
Of course you need to quantify, otherwise you have no basis for a common measure.
How can anything be relative without a value being quantified?
The whole idea feels as wrong as can possibly be in terms of heritage anyway, people's responses or feelings towards a place like stonehenge could be described as 'irrational', 'passionate', 'spiritual' how do you go about constructing a basis upon which to measure that?
