    Reasons For

    1 perspective
    Reason for
    ?
    • 1.Strawson's reactive attitudes themselves presuppose capacity judgments—we withhold resentment from the young or cognitively impaired.
      ?

      Think about whether this reason is strong or weak

    • 2.Distinguishing between reactive attitudes and capacity filters creates a false dichotomy; appropriately calibrated attitudes depend on capacities.
      ?

      Think about whether this reason is strong or weak

    • 3.Claiming capacity standards 'smuggle in' foreign elements mischaracterizes how baseline competence conditions enable the participant stance itself.
      ?

      Think about whether this reason is strong or weak

    Reasons Against

    1 perspective
    Reason against
    ?
    • 1.Strawson's participant stance grounds responsibility in reactive attitudes, not in agents' underlying capacities or competence.
      ?

      Think about whether this reason is strong or weak

    • 2.Capacity filters require assessing whether agents meet performance thresholds, which shifts focus from attitudes to external standards.
      ?

      Think about whether this reason is strong or weak

    • 3.This shift reintroduces the objective, third-person evaluation that Strawson's framework explicitly displaces in favor of interpersonal engagement.
      ?

      Think about whether this reason is strong or weak
