Hi Marsha, When Pirsig says, A causes be can be thought of as B values precondition A. I added that there is nothing more to B (whatever the collection pattern being thought about) than such preferences since preference is another word value and since in the MOQ everything identifiable is thought of as a pattern of value or collection of patterns.
