He specifically uses (more often than not it seems to me) the 'qualifier' 'conventional'. He refers to the 'conventional subject-object metaphysics'. You two are superimposing this onto the intellectual level (leaving intact all confusing difficulties associated with this way of thinking)whilst Pirsig makes it clear that he didn't need to get rid of them because the MOQ could 'encase them neatly within its structure- the upper two levels being subjective, and the lower two, objective. Still later I saw that the subject-object distinction is very useful for sharply distinguishing between biological and social levels'.(LC, p 530)
