    It is not the case that The successive phases of the specious present in the Extensional model form a unified ensemble that conforms to Stern's conception of a presence-time.

    Reasons For

    2 perspectives
    Reason for 1 of 2
    ?
    • 1.Stern's presence-time requires phenomenological unity grounded in intentional acts, not merely structural co-presence of temporal phases.
      ?

      Think about whether this reason is strong or weak

    • 2.The Extensional model's successive phases are unified by causal-retentional relations, not by a single encompassing intentional act.
      ?

      Think about whether this reason is strong or weak

    • 3.A unity achieved through retention differs fundamentally from Stern's unified act, making the conformity claim a category error.
      ?

      Think about whether this reason is strong or weak

    Reason for 2 of 2
    ?
    • 1.Husserl's critique of Stern establishes that genuine temporal unity requires the primal impression-retention-protention structure, not mere phase succession.
      ?

      Think about whether this reason is strong or weak

    • 2.The Extensional model distributes consciousness across discrete successive phases without the continuous flowing now that Husserl and Stern both presuppose for genuine presence.
      ?

      Think about whether this reason is strong or weak

    Reasons Against

    Reason against

      ?

      Think about whether this reason is strong or weak

    • 2.The successive phases of the specious present depicted in the Extensional model do form a unified ensemble.
      ?

      Think about whether this reason is strong or weak
