In the macro scale, spin (ie rotation) is definitely quantitative—any object is rotating at a particular rate about a particular axis. This can be measured, integrated to yield (change in) orientation, etc.
In QM, my understanding is that (much like “flavor” and “color”) the term is just re-purposed for something else.
