The thing that makes humans unique is the ability to process DQ in an evolutionary way. [P] Agree. [J] The first self-reflective faculty of this capability is the Emotions. Emotions are unique in that they are DQ only. Love is DQ and only described by analogy. [P] "The MOQ sees emotions as a biological response to quality and not the same thing as quality. There are many cases, particularly in economic activity where values occur without any emotion." (LC, NOte 141) [J] I have no idea how to describe a social level in terms of DQ/SQ. [P] SQ at the social level is the Giant. DQ is accessible at this level so long as SOL, with its absence of the concept of DQ, doesn't to try guide the Giant. [J] Intellect is defined as SOL (thanks BO) DQ/SQ. Higher emotional and higher intellectual levels are also DQ only, the purview of heroes. [P} DQ is the purview of all who pursue the Conceptually Unknown in order "to bring something out of that unknown into a static form that would be of value to everyone." (SODV) I agree such individuals are heroes.
