Psychology is not a science... seen on IG

Sure, philosophy is a meta of human-perception, but doesn’t that perception solely dictate how we derive logic?

No, it doesn't. If everyone decides two plus two equals five, they're wrong. Math derives everything from the a-priori. There's no assumption. Variables are given, defined, and built upon. I don't even know what Truth beyond logic is meant to mean. There's no more fundamental truth than the a-priori.

I don’t see why this is such a controversial idea, that our existence as beings in the universe affects how we (subjectively) understand it.

The problem is you seem to think that our perception of the universe changes the universe itself – and don't bring quantum into this because whether determinism is a thing or not, our perceptions are not determiners (the act of measuring being an action not a perception).

If we were different creatures ... isn’t it possible we would develop an entirely different system for representing “information”?

Representing, sure. Two plus two can equal fish as long as you define fish in such a way that it's equal to four, but that doesn't change reality itself. Math is not merely some collection of symbols. It's the meaning behind them.
