It is of course the MOQ that "stops us" from using SOM as our frame of reference, but the weak interpretation renders MOQ impotent by its disastrous 4th.level which is SOM's "mind" in a Q-disguise. This the strong interpretation puts right by making intellect what it was meant to be (in ZAMM) namely SOM stripped down to the S/O distinction. Thereby the MOQ regains its strength and mows down all SOM- induced paradoxes. > What is that something, exactly? What's the problem? The problem is the "weak interpreters" who postulate that the MOQ is an expansion of the intellectual level which is impossible because Q- intellect is MOQ's property, nothing that the MOQ can fit inside or "expand". What you mean is an expansion of MIND and if mind is back SOM is back and the MOQ is shot..
