Bo,

You and I seem to be getting closer...

Good.  I like it.  I think when you say DQ expresses four different ways,
you are in concord with my postulation about the insight of codes which
govern the interactions between the levels.

There is the code of interaction - the mechanistic laws of the inorganic

There is the code of sensation and stimulus-response, which governs the
biological

There is the code of emotion - which governs social relationships

And finally, the sticking point, the code of intellect which produces
metaphysical and mystical systems of understanding reality as a whole.

Yes, the codes are distinct from the static latches of the levels.  Agree.
