The brain-melting, ultra-meta conflict about the nature of epistemological disputes themselves. Philosophers here argue: Are epistemological paradigms truly incommensurable, or is there a super-rational way to judge them? What is the status of our talk about ways of knowing? It's doing epistemology on epistemology.
Theory of Metaepistemological Dispute Example: A debate between a relativist ("All knowledge is culturally constructed; no paradigm is objectively better") and a critical realist ("There is a mind-independent reality, and some paradigms approximate it better") is a metaepistemological dispute. They're not fighting about science or culture, but about the very possibility of judging one way of knowing against another.
