$\begingroup$ I am upvoting this answer for the first paragraph, even though the second one is puzzling. It seems to me you could just as well replace "subjective" by "objective" and create a demonstrably true (and useful) statement, "every step in the process is objective including the (choices of a) model, the prior, the loss function, and the possible decisions." Could you explain the sense in which you find these to be subjective? $\endgroup$
