    Supports→Tropes and immanent universals are metaphysically untenable

    Any entity wholly present at location L1 and wholly present at distinct location L2 generates a contradiction: the entity both has and lacks the intrinsic properties of each region.

    Key Terms

    Location(as a fundamental philosophical concept)
    In this context, the spatial relationship or position that objects have—where something is in space.
    contradiction(Relevant to distinguishing contradictions from false contingent statements in the logic student variant of the preface paradox.)
    A statement that is necessarily false in all interpretations; in this context, specifically the negation of a tautology or any falsehood drawn from a list containing only tautologies and contradictions.
    entity(as used in metaphysics)
    Any individual thing or being that exists—could be a person, object, or anything else that is one distinct thing.
    intrinsic properties(Contrasted with structural properties revealed by physics)
    Properties which supposedly underlie and account for the structural properties of things.

    Start fresh with something unrelated.
    region(Derived from Conditional Reflexivity within the theory)
    An entity that is exactly located at itself; being self-located under exact location is the criterion for being a region in this framework
    wholly present(Described as the implicit rationale behind ordinary concepts of objects, contrasted with the perdurantist view that objects have temporal parts.)
    An object is wholly present at a time if the entire object, not merely a temporal stage or part of it, exists at that time.
