[Platt] Betterness is measured by both DQ and SQ, as in the following: "The increase in versatility is directed toward Dynamic Quality. The increase in power to control hostile forces is directed toward static quality. Without Dynamic Quality the organism cannot grow. Without static quality the organism cannot last. Both are needed." (Lila, 11)
Agree? [Krimel] I agree that what I said was something of an overstatement. But DQ is much more likely to lead away from 'betterness' than toward it. 'Growth' is a static pattern that depends primarily on SQ in the environment; temperature, moisture, chemistry, gravity and so forth. If these are subject to unpredictable variation, that is, with DQ then grow can not occur either. But yes balance or harmony is a critical factors.
