Maybe I'm being blinded by numerology, but Kohlberg's stages and Kegan's stages seem suspiciously correlated.
Nihilism: stage 5 mind with stage <6 morality? "Surfing Dialectics" is hard without a higher moral sense to guide decision-making.
What changes first: stage of mind/self, or stage of moral reasoning?
Looks like @Meaningness beat me to this but came to a different sort of conclusion: if I read correctly, he sees "Universal Principles" as still operating in a Kegan stage 4 mode? I'm not certain I agree, but the concepts are too nebulous for me to tackle. vividness.live/2015/10/12/dev…
Note how in the little Kegan meaning-making diagram, stage 4 stands apart from "the socialized mind".

Is outsider-ness (re: society) an inherent characteristic of stages >3?
Weird to consider that in the 60s and 70s, it took people till their 40s to gain the dialectical insights that we now attempt to feed to college kids.

Progressive Stage Theories are interpreted normatively as Holy Ground: we desire (or are told to desire) the mystical "Inner Sanctum" stage of Being.
