I see a clear gradings of the quality of cultural concepts and activities, and
can see useful social / intellectual labels, but this labelling seems entirely
cultural.

[Arlo]
Of course it is, the logos emerges from the mythos, it is bound by it. Pirsig
says as much when we criticizes the logos that emerged from Greek culture (of
which we are the heir) as having a sharp subject/object distinction, the SOM
we've inherited. The key sentence to all this Pirsig himself provides.

"Our intellectual description of nature is always culturally derived."
