Intuitionism is just disallowing the law of the excluded middle (that propositions are either true or they are not true). Disallowing non-constructive proofs is a related system to intuitionism called “constructivism”. There are rigorous formulations of mathematics that are constructive, intuitionist or even strict finitist.

THe parent of my post referred to disallowing non-constructive proofs, which is not a feature of intuitionist logic but of constructivism.
