    The Fox case does not satisfy condition (c*) because the truth of R does not jeopardize any presupposition of the cognitive project of obtaining perceptual justification for P7

    Reasons Against

    Reason against 1 of 2
    ?
    • 1.Perceptual justification for P7 presupposes that the perceiver's environment contains animals identifiable by their perceptual features.
      ?

      Think about whether this reason is strong or weak

    • 2.If R is true (the animal is not a fox), this undermines the reliability of the very perceptual discrimination capacities invoked in justifying P7.
      ?

      Think about whether this reason is strong or weak

    • 3.An epistemic project whose reliability conditions are defeated by R cannot coherently claim R leaves its presuppositions intact.
      ?

      Think about whether this reason is strong or weak

    Reason against 2 of 2
    ?
    • 1.Pryor's dogmatist account holds that perceptual justification presupposes that appearances are not systematically misleading about kind-membership.
      ?

      Think about whether this reason is strong or weak

    • 2.The truth of R entails the perceiver was misled about the animal's kind, which is precisely what dogmatist perceptual warrant presupposes cannot obtain.
      ?

      Think about whether this reason is strong or weak

    • 3.Therefore, condition (c*) is satisfied because R's truth is incompatible with the non-deception presupposition internal to the perceptual cognitive project.
      ?

      Think about whether this reason is strong or weak

    With (c*) in the place of (c), Fox no longer instantiates the disjunctive template. For the truth of R—the proposition that the animal in the garbage is not a fox—appears to jeopardize no presupposition of the cognitive project of obtaining a perceptual justification for P7. Thus (c*) is not fulfilled. On the other hand, arguments that intuitively do not transmit do satisfy (c*). Take again Zebra*. In that case R is the proposition that the animals in the pen are mules cleverly disguised so as t
