Agreed. I think "intrinsic value" is an imprecise attempt at describing those things that prolong life (i.e. gain you more time) either individually or for your genetic line.
That depends on circumstances. Sometimes a gun is more life prolonging than water or sunlight. Sometimes water or food can be life THREATENING (i.e. drowning, morbid obesity). Their relationship with time is what determines the value they hold.
