I wrote a longish piece, but have deleted it all, because I know you 
will wander off on some tangent. So try to concentrate. If James 
and Dewey and Northrop agree on an undifferentiated, primary 
something ahead of our subject/object reality, and Pirsig joins 
them, only adding that this is called "Quality", then the (first ZAMM) 
MOQ should have looked like this:   

       Undifferentiated or DQ - slash - Differentiated or SQ 

not the: 

                                  Quality 
                                      |
    Undifferentiated or DQ - slash - Differentiated or SQ



... which is behind the Quality/MOQ "metaphysics" that overrides 
the MOQ



IMO
