This is because 'axioms'
cannot be 'logically' 'proven' - i.e. they are
base-ic (assumed!) facts which do not 'stem' from other 'facts'.
All asserted arguments derive from stated or unstated (as in the case of what you say)
assumptions. The
entire edifice of Science is based on a set of assumptions-

You are of course entitled to yours (your assumptions). I simply present mine as being ones which functionally
represent what
I both experience and observe to be 'true' about Life.
In my 'argument' I have simply asserted 'Intelligence' to be a
basic (innate)
feature of Life (Being, etc.) and 'Creativity' to be its
core value (or innate 'motivation') and made some logical deductions therefore, the main one being that intelligent (discerning) e-
value-ations (i.e. assessments and relative judgments) are aspects of ITs operation in
all cases, a corollary one being that
any and all 'postures' of non-judgmentalism - the word 'judgment'
as used in the above sense) - is
therefore (logically speaking) a
pretentious 'dissociation' from the Reality of (one's) Life/Being.
I accept and appreciate the implications of the fact (pertaining to
you) that it is
your 'judgment' that what I have presented has
no analogical bearing on Reality.
BTW, what I stated above is a just sliver of the philosophy I live by ('Creativity' has a certain 'character', IMO, which I haven't discussed here).
