keep · the convergence is realAll three top out at the same place — the self opening to the group. Maslow's late revision puts self-transcendence (own needs set aside, service to others) above self-actualization; Gilligan's Level 3 is integrated care for self and others; the uta carries one private kokoro out into a civilization's shared sensibility. Three fields, same summit — that's a finding, not a coincidence of shape.
cut · the grid is forcedThe ladders are different kinds of hierarchy: Maslow is priority (what you need first), Gilligan is moral maturation, the uta is composition (parts → whole). They share the two poles and nothing in between. A full mesh would have to fake most of its cells — which is exactly what the toggle shows.
cut · neither ladder is bedrockMaslow's hierarchy is empirically contested and reflects Western individualist assumptions; the care/justice split is real but its correlation with sex is the part its founders walked back (a corpus-partition fact, not an essence). Hang things on the spine lightly.
