True, they are both 'cars'. But, their goals as it relates to that experience are very different. A reductionist would simply say 'they are both methods of conveyance' but a reasonable person would quickly sniff that out and say "ahh, there are lists of goals that each vehicle is trying to achieve."
Thus, both can be of high quality.

So we can't relate to "Quality" in any kind of absolute sense? It's all relative to how they succeed at meeting their desired goals? Who defines the goal? The builder or the consumer?
