    It is not the case that If the dominant tradition in reduction literature treats reductive dependence as causal, the burden of proof falls on those who claim Enç's similar terminology is non-causal.

    ?Set your confidence on the premises below to see your aggregate.

    Reasons For

    1 perspective
    Reason for
    ?
    • 1.Technical terms evolve meaning within subfields; similarity of terminology doesn't entail identity of conceptual content.
      ?

      Think about whether this reason is strong or weak

    • 2.Enç's specific theoretical framework may warrant non-causal dependence reading regardless of dominant tradition patterns.
      ?

      Think about whether this reason is strong or weak

    • 3.Burden allocation based on tradition risks conservatism; substantive arguments for non-causality shouldn't require prior proof.
      ?

      Think about whether this reason is strong or weak

    Reasons Against

    1 perspective
    Reason against
    ?
    • 1.Linguistic conventions in established fields typically carry consistent meanings unless explicitly redefined by new theorists.
      ?

      Think about whether this reason is strong or weak

    • 2.Enç uses 'dependence' terminology within reduction literature without signaling departure from dominant causal interpretations.
      ?

      Think about whether this reason is strong or weak

    • 3.Burden of proof properly rests on those proposing non-standard interpretations of standard disciplinary terminology.
      ?

      Think about whether this reason is strong or weak
