    Unless you are being facetious, you're messing with my suspension of
    disbelief here! Whether the real Lila is walking around out there is totally
    irrelevant. This is also a philosophical treatise, thus Lila is
    representative, a model, a paradigm of a living being made up of varying
    grades of quality at different levels. The emphasis is a cautionary tale -
    not to ignore or dismiss those who might be of lesser quality at some
    levels - concentrate on the important level, the DQ one.
