The S/O split as reality's ground - known as SOM - has been 
proved false by the MOQ. Thereby both camps of SOM (the 
objective-over-subjective that claims that TRUTH is objective, as 
well as the subjective-over-objective that claims that TRUTH is 
subjective  - are wrong. Reality's ground is the DQ/SQ split, but the 
MOQ also says that the S/O isn't to be rejected, but relegated the 
role as its own highest/best static level. 

Static meaning that it's true for all "pragmatic" needs, but fails, i.e. 
start to produce paradoxes - the moment one begin to examining 
things metaphysically through its glasses. Wops, there I went 
pragmatic too ;-)

Then the final question: Is the DQ/SQ split true. Yes, because no 
platypis has shown, least not by the SOL interpretation.
