Deskripsi
<p>This paper establishes two facts. The first is that a recently presented problem for supervaluationism (found in Delia Fara’s ‘<em>Scope Confusions and Unsatisfiable Disjuncts</em>’, in <em><span style="font-family: mceinline;">Cuts and Clouds</span>, </em>[2010]) applies equally to the branching-time cousin of the theory (first presented in Thomason’s <em>Indeterminist Time and Truth-Value Gaps</em>, in <em>Theoria </em>[1970]). The second fact is that a new version of branching-time supervaluationism (presented by Malpass & Wawer, <em>A New Future for the Thin Red Line</em>, in <em>Synthese</em> [2012]) avoids this and related problems.</p>
