[I opine:] Yes, love and quality are not synonymous, but the question is
what drives things. There the answer can be either Love or Quality or any of
several capitalized words, with the capitalization there to remind us that
the Love/etc. that powers the universe is something other than lower-case
love/etc., but related enough that it makes some sense to use the word. It
is our inability to know this ultimate driver of things that requires us to
use different capitalized words at different times, since no one of them
suffices by itself.
