This is true, but, subjective Bayesianism does not give you any

Yes.
So, for AGI purposes, the subjective Bayesian approach is not enough...
Seems that way, but on the other hand, subjective bayesianism seems to me

Subjective bayesians are not constrained under some supposed force of
logic to make their probabilistic judgements conform to an idealized
objective standard.
