Hi Marsha I think you're comments are right on the money. Before intellectual patterns of value came to dominance, knowledge was passed along socially: mother to daughter, father to son, teacher to apprentice. With the advent of the university around the end of the 19th and beginning of the 20th centuries, knowledge could be passed along in ways which no longer required the one-on-one social teaching styles. As per your example above, I think the MOQ would say that putting intellectual principles to work within social level activities allows knowledge to be shared in more readily assessible and better ways.
