    Key Terms

    Demandingness(as a characteristic that marks excellence rather than inappropriateness)
    The quality of being difficult, challenging, or requiring a lot of effort—in this case, the idea that true intellectual excellence is hard to achieve.
    Intrinsic(describing the kind of continuities that ground identity)
    Something that belongs to or is part of something by its very nature, rather than coming from outside or being relational.
    Weak rationality(as used in decision theory and epistemology)
    A basic standard for making decisions or beliefs that requires you to be logically consistent and avoid obvious contradictions.
    categorically more demanding(the statement questions whether something is truly harder in a fundamental way)
    Definitively or fundamentally harder in kind, not just in degree—belonging to a different level of difficulty.

    procedurally contingent(describes whether a condition's difficulty comes from how it's done versus what it inherently is)
    Something that depends on the specific steps or methods used to achieve it, rather than being built into the thing itself.
    rationality(Traditional conception being challenged by epistemic relativists)
    A cognitive virtue and hallmark of the scientific method, intimately tied to requirements of consistency, justification, warrant, and evidence for beliefs.
