[MD] The Quality/MOQ meta-metaphysics

"This problem of trying to describe value in terms of substance has been
 the problem of a smaller container trying to contain a larger one.
 Value is not a subspecies of substance. Substance is a subspecies of value."
 ("Lila", p. 117)

Sometimes this is a problem, sometimes not.  A dictionary includes the word
'dictionary'.  English contains the word 'English'.  One of our concepts is 'concept';
one of our ideas is 'idea'.  And (all) metaphysics are included on the intellectual
level.  (It would be strange if the intellectual level only contained the lesser
metaphysics, but not the best one.)
