    No, I don't think you're overreacting. You wouldn't even be over-reacting
    if it were hormones and a simplistic pattern of biological value, because
    even at inorganic levels, love is at work and love should be respected.

    Lila never mentions Love? Does it ever say what powers the dynamic quality?
    I'd say that love powers the engine of dynamic quality, it is the motive and
    reason for the ongoing pursuit of quality. To do what you should and be
    moral. To love is to do what is morally expected, to bring the expectation
    into being. Everything dynamic needs a source of energy, right? Or does
    Pirsig think quality powers itself, that no power is needed to keep it going
    perpetually?
