"The difference
between these two points of view is philosophic,
not scientific. The question
of whether an electron does a certain thing because
it has to or because it
wants to is completely irrelevant to the data of what
the electron does." (Pirsig)

Pirsig says the choice of description is scientifically
irrelevant. So it doesn't follow that if it's not
scientifically one, then it's the other.
