Yeah I think it’s probably inaccurate to say you don’t meta-value this particular thing, OP. Seems more like you’ve gotten a deal where you don’t need it the way others do, and that when you examine the network of implications of your other values, you will find there is an aching hole at the edges where there would normally be a connection to this value; other values putting value on things which are hard or impossible without the presence of this value, would be my main guess as to how that works. And maybe you can and want to engineer a world where you can stay that way, or maybe the values you do have would be best-according-to-you satisfied by achieving this otherwise normal thing by self-mod. That all said, this seems like a thing to worry about after the field of alignment has mostly reached maturity and you can retire.
