The situation is NOT the same for "autonomy of individuals" and "uniformity of individuals" before I really do have terminal values for these things, apart from the way they make me feel.

How do you know that?

What would you expect to experience if your preference for individual autonomy in fact derived from something else?

It was meant as a hypothetical. I don't actually know.
