That's not what Pirsig or I are doing.  Instead he and I are looking for 
criteria for the 3rd level and then seeing if it applies
only to humans or also to non-humans.

Agreed--that's why my example was about humans.


Perhaps we should look for examples of social immorality:
I promise to meet you, but don't meet up.
We agree to meet, but I don't meet up.
I intend to meet you (but don't promise to) & I realize you recognize my 
intention, but don't meet up.
You expect me to meet you and I realize this, but I don't meet up.
I intend to meet you, but don't meet up.
Which of these are humans but not animals capable of?
Which of these are 3rd level & which are merely 2nd level?
