But now, I'm not sure you agree with (5) as I intended it. Do you think life, consciousness, activity, and some other things have value-in-themselves? Do these things have intrinsic value?

It is rather difficult to ask that question in the way you intend it. Particularly if the semantics have "because I say so" embedded rather than supplemented.
