No, I'm afraid it doesn't, but I'm pretty sure most of the people here would
agree that what the 4 static levels are supposed to describe, are 4 distinctly
different kinds of reality. The reality of the ball and the reality of the
feeling of the ball will fall in 2 different kinds of reality, but both are
just
as real. That's one of the key differences between the MoQ and for example
idealism, which only recognizes one kind of reality.
What we're mostly arguing about, is how to divide these 4 kinds of reality, and
it has proved to be pretty hard since each of us discusses them from one's own
understanding of them, which in turn makes it hard to understand eachother's
arguments.

I agree with you on this one. In my view, the ideas you talk about that affect
other people, are intellectual patterns that, when you read about it, causes an
intellectual quality event that may or may not strike you as good. Either way,
you are somewhat affected by it. But I'm not sure I understand why it would be
SOM nor mysticism?
