I think you could use this methodology to focus your questions too. Start from something very broad like “what’s a good life”, then use the methodology to work out what the key sub-questions are within that question; and so on. My aim wasn’t, however, to give a full account of rational inquiry, starting from zero.
I also don’t see there being an especial neglect for second-order goods. Experts and common sense generally think these things are good, so they’ll come up in your assessment, even if you can’t further analyse them or quantify them.
