I'm a bit unsure. Are you saying that the material is inherently, inevitably, symbolic?
If you are saying that the material could be symbolic I agree. The only way around ambiguity I suppose would be to battle against it. The world will always make it ambiguous but on a personal level I think we can be clear.

Perhaps the paths of both the assassin and the pacifist can be considered one in Zen, I don't know. Can you feed both wolves?

I think both wolves are hungry. The assassin may be heroic doing away with evil where the pacifist sits by idly as the world burns for the worst. Perhaps both are Zen. Assassination as Zen. Interesting.

(Nietzsche, Complete Works Vol 3. 169.)
("Detestable" perhaps connoting more in translation than meant in the original)
I think what F.N may be getting at is the egoistic drive behind the individual philosophical views, and in turn suggests that the homogeneous view approach be the only pure one.
Because that is the type of approach that we will make the most progress with. Unlike the individual, random, ambiguous ideals which halter spiritual and intellectual progress. I.E - oppressive Religion.

The universe has a strange way of balancing things out.
Yin and Yang come to light when the lamb and wolf fight.
