do you think subjective uncertainty is more important than I think it is?

I'm not sure. It probably depends on what "priors" really are and/or whether people have common priors. I have a couple of posts that explain these problems a bit more. But it does seem quite possible that the more recent results in the Bayesian aggregation literature aren't really relevant to FAI.
