[MD] The Individual Level

[Arlo Bensinger]

[Platt, Possibly Trolling, But Arlo Bites]
The individual moral character traits of honesty, integrity and personal 
responsibility are an intrinsic to the value of science, the quintessential 
intellectual level pattern.

[Arlo]
"Honesty" and "integrity" are social level morals, which when adopted by 
individuals engaged in collective activity, allow intellectual patterns, 
such as "calculus", to emerge (dialogically, I'd add). Perhaps, I'd agree, 
they are high Quality social morals that encourage higher level 
intellectual patterns, but they are NOT intellectual patterns themselves.

As for "personal responsibility", if you'd drop your use of this as a mere 
synonym for "conservative party values", and instead integrate it with the 
larger "arete" as a "duty to self", we could get somewhere. But since 
you've ignored completely the "Quality principled person" in favor of your 
"Victorian principled person", I can only assume foisting "conservative 
party values" to an elevated position in the MOQ continues to be more 
important for you than really anything else.
