Physical transparency of substrate is categorically distinct from transparency of meaning, so inspectability of mechanism does not reduce the verification problem for understanding.

Based on where you are in your exploration

Categorically distinct(The statement claims semantic mechanisms of different paradoxes are categorically distinct): Fundamentally different in type or category, not just different in degree.
Inspectability of mechanism(as used in philosophy of science): The ability to examine and understand how something works by looking at all its moving parts or inner workings.
Substrate(as the underlying physical foundation being discussed): The physical stuff or material that something is made of or runs on; in this case, the brain as the physical basis for mental states.
Transparency of meaning(as used in epistemology): The ability to fully understand what something means or represents, even if you can see all its parts.
Verification problem(as used in epistemology): The difficulty of proving or confirming that something is true or that you actually understand it.
physical transparency(as what is lost when theories add protective assumptions): The quality of a scientific explanation being clear and straightforward about what's actually happening in the real world, without hidden tricks or unclear assumptions.
understanding(Medical informed consent theory): A mental element required for consent capacity, ranging from basic comprehension and knowledge of facts (minimal interpretation) to higher cognitive standards; its precise meaning is contested
