    Key Terms

    Knowledge transmission(the main subject of the statement)
    When one person shares what they know with another person, and that knowledge gets passed along reliably from person to person.
    Modal robustness(describing what genuine dominance reasoning should have)
    The quality of remaining reliable and unchanged across different possible scenarios or conditions.
    Sufficient for knowledge(as used in epistemology)
    Enough by itself to count as real knowledge; if something is sufficient for knowledge, having it guarantees you have knowledge.
    Testimonial uptake (TV-S)(as used in epistemology)
    The act of simply receiving and accepting what someone tells you—in this case, 'TV-S' is shorthand for a specific philosophical theory about how testimony works.
