Tim to Andre:

You are probably right about it being impossible to fully understand Quality!

Andre:
Come to think of it Tim, I am certain. I think what we are discussing here is Pirsig's metaphysics of...

Given that Quality is a pre-intellectual event, a metaphysics thereof can only be a finger pointing to ... and nothing else. Any metaphysical construction of Quality can only approximate it by saying what it is not rather than what it is. It cannot be 'captured' or understood intellectually. We (only) have the static 'fingers' of value.

That is why it is important to keep DQ and sq separate, to not mix them up or confuse them.
