I don't quite get Arlo's complaint against Platt, how can having a cosmically intrinsic directional pull toward betterness impinge upon freedom?
Freedom isn't something dependent upon anything outside myself, I can choose to push against gravity and walk on two legs, or just let my body fall and flop all over the place, whatever. Likewise the cosmos being composed of morality doesn't force me to be good. I'd say just the opposite of constraint, it offers a force to push against, a choice to be made. A cosmos without quality is like a rollercoaster in space - meaningless. Does Arlo complain against gravity because it forbids him from floating off into the aether? Choice spells more freedom, not less.
