... Kant characterizes the transcendental apperception as the highest point,
der hoechste Punkt, to which must be fastened all other use of the
Verstand, even its purely logical. Heidegger comments this in 
Kant's thesis on Being.

I would say, the pride is of an onto-theo-logical character, comparable
to where Leibniz speaks of the principium grande.
