Q: –“Do you value truth or utility more? Is it even possible for humans to know truth?”–

1. Yes we can know whether or not testimony (truth) is testifable (possible to testify to), and if so, whether it provides decidability sufficient for satisfaction of demand for infallibility in the context in question.

2. The spectrum of demand (preference, utility, truth) refers to the scope of consequences and externalities that are produced by the satisfaction of demand for infallibility. That’s what that spectrum refers to.
