Preferences that dissolve under idealized rational reflection are not irreducibly subjective but merely contingently subjective, a weaker and less philosophically significant claim.

Contingently subjective(contrasted with irreducibly subjective to show a weaker claim): Something that happens to be based on personal perspective right now, but only because of specific circumstances—it's not necessarily tied to personal perspective in a deeper way.
Idealized rational reflection(the process under which preferences might change or dissolve): Thinking through something carefully and logically, imagining you had perfect information and no emotional biases getting in the way.
Irreducibly subjective(describing the nature of explanation in this framework): Something that can't be broken down into objective parts; it fundamentally depends on a person's individual perspective or beliefs rather than being purely factual.
Preferences that dissolve(preferences that change under careful examination, as opposed to stable ones): Desires or tastes that disappear or stop seeming important when you think about them more carefully and rationally.
