No, it doesn't show. Our understanding of physics also changes over time. So here too, does neuroscience prove that it is subjective? By the way, our understanding of neuroscience also changes, and there it is not monotonically either.
And in general, neuroscience proves nothing in this regard. I am surprised that you hold such archaic views. But perhaps your mind has biased you. I suggest you ignore it, and use your mind.
