The sections “Social Systems” and “Nondualist Epistemology” seem to be trying to establish that the norms of rationality are ethical norms, and I don’t see any need for that. Simple arguments show that there are non-ethical norms, such as the norms relating to playing games, so an epistemological norm can just be another kind of non-ethical norm.
I agree but it is philosophically interesting that at least some of those norms required for epistemology are ethical norms, and this serves to justify the ‘ought’ language in light of criticisms that the ’ought’s of the post have nothing to do with ethics.

Why should they have something to do with ethics?
