Because with that in mind, I completely agree with DQ as pre-intellectual. I question DQ as pre-conceptual, however. As "the patterning force" I could imagine it as somewhat pre-conceptual, but yet it isn't completely "pre" because as I see it, it is that which patterns (conceptualizes). There. That's a key synonym - a concept is a pattern - a distinct pattern cut out of the cosmic flow of patterns and understood or seen as a unit. The question of how these patterns arise in the mind is an ancient philosophic problem, and as I see it, this is what the MoQ answers and solves perfectly - the way patterns are distinctified by animal minds.
