    Challenges→Ockham's formal consequences valid in virtue of intrinsic middles do not satisfy the (ST) criterion

    A consequence that becomes valid upon articulating its implicit logical structure satisfies (ST) at the level of its complete logical form.

    Reasons For

    1 perspective
    Reason for
    ?
    • 1.Logical validity is intrinsic to argument structure, not dependent on external discovery or articulation by agents.
      ?

      Think about whether this reason is strong or weak

    • 2.Making implicit premises explicit reveals what was already logically entailed, satisfying formal validity conditions.
      ?

      Think about whether this reason is strong or weak

    • 3.Complete logical form captures all necessary conditions for a consequence to follow, determining its validity status.
      ?

      Think about whether this reason is strong or weak

    Reasons Against

    1 perspective
    Reason against
    ?
    • 1.Articulation cannot create validity retroactively; a consequence either followed logically before or did not.
      ?

      Think about whether this reason is strong or weak

    • 2.Implicit structures may be ambiguous or admit multiple formalizations, making articulation theory-dependent, not objective.
      ?

      Think about whether this reason is strong or weak

    • 3.Satisfying (ST) should not require cognitive act of articulation; validity should be mind-independent and intrinsic.
      ?

      Think about whether this reason is strong or weak
