[Craig] 
The hierarchy of levels is the moral priority (see "Lila").

[Krimel]
I have already rephrased this question three times. In the cases of Easter
Island and Haiti societies destroyed themselves by deforesting the
respective islands. Social values dominated biological one. The MoQ value
hierarchy would say morality was served.

I would suggest that the 'levels' provide no guidance to morality at all and
that what is at issue is balance and harmony among conflicting forces
regardless of taxonomy or position in the taxonomy.
