[MD] Social Imposition ?

[Case]

[Platt]
Well, Pirsig offers a consistent explanation of a lot science admits it 
doesn't know, like "Why survive?" You pays your money and takes your choice.
My money is on Pirsig when it comes to a fuller explanation of experience
than science offers.

[Case]
You are condemning science for not answering questions it doesn't ask.
Condemning it for not asking would be more appropriate, that's what Pirsig
does. But Pirsig is not attempting anything nearly as ambitious as the
project of science. It is naïve to think he offers a fuller explanation. To
the extent that he does however, he does not attack the validity of science
rather he proposes a refinement in how science is viewed.
