I think it's a mistake to claim that mind and matter don't retain their metaphysical capacity inside the MOQ. Pirsig denies that assertion in "Lila's Child." "As far as I know the MOQ does not trash the SOM. It contains the SOM within a larger system. The only thing it trashes is the SOM assertion that values are unreal." (LC -Note 135) IMO the umbrella of MOQ Quality includes as subsets all intellectual realities, judging some to be better (more explanatory with more 'metaphysical capacity" ) than others.
