Yes.

Since experience presupposes consciousness whether in the MOQ sense
or SOM sense, I would say Experience=Consciousness=Quality. But, never mind.
No need to quibble over words. We agree that consciousness is value-perception.
If we could get everyone to see that light, much controversy would fade away 
and the value of the MOQ as a description of reality would become more evident.

Best,
