I would then argue in favor of rewording that sentence. The reason being that it might confuse people about what transitivity is (i.e. a property of a specific relation).

A reference to Frege's "Über Sinn und Bedeutung" might be a better fit.

Anyway, thanks for pointing (See what I did there?) this out.

nice one

It is, though I must admit I personally detested the subject as I have very different views about what language is. But that's going way too far for a value/reference discussion :P

Anyway, all jokes aside, I appreciate how you brought up the limitations and flaws of my article. Hopefully future readers will note your points. Thanks!
