His whole resolution argument is itself dependent on subjectivity.  If you keep zooming in at ever higher resolution of a mountain sculpture, you'll just be seeing surfaces with lots of cracks and defects.  Consider being an ant on Mars crawling on that structure.  Could you tell if it's designed?  Zoom in further and all you see are crystals.  Zoom in further and you see atomic nuclei.

At what level of resolution do you stop?  Well, until you design-meter goes off apparently.  

One way to get around his "assumption" argument is to ask simply: How do you construct a design-meter?  Suppose you want to codify His design-sensing algorithm into a computer.  What information is required?  It's quite obvious:
1) You need knowledge of human designs
2) You need knowledge of human minds and their design techniques

You can't get around this subjectivity.

The DI will keep looking for whatever it is they're looking for and will tell us what it is when they find it.

Although we can now but see thru a glass darkly the outline coming thru looks a lot like christ.
