I echo these thoughts. I have recently started to asks myself with MOQ, what's
left for philosophy? At the same time thinking, Why is there so much
disagreement over this point or that point? Why didn't Pirsig say something
about this? Most often disagreement is the about levels, morals, and their
interrelationships. So I've boiled my MOQ topline down to an amalgam of the
plain American English definitions of metaphysics and quality:
1. The nature of being or reality is all of the values that make something
what it is.
For me this passes the Poincare criteria and covers everything from the
universe to a quark and beyond.
