Observation (2a): the presupposition p ∨ q holds at every world.
Observation (2b): the disjunction can be false. At kingDoesnt the presupposition is satisfied but both disjuncts fail.
Strong Kleene disjunction of the two presuppositional propositions.
Equations
Instances For
Strong Kleene never produces false for this disjunction. Because presuppositions conflict, at least one disjunct is always undefined, so the table never reaches the 0 ∨ 0 = 0 row.
Classical disjunction requires both presuppositions: presup = p ∧ q.
Equations
Instances For
PrProp.or is never defined when presuppositions conflict.
Filtering disjunction (Heim/Schlenker-style symmetric filtering).
Equations
Instances For
orFilter predicts presupposition failure at kingOpens, where the disjunction should clearly be true. The filtering condition demands the second presupposition hold when the first assertion is true.
But the expected presupposition IS satisfied there.
The flexible accommodation disjunction.
Equations
Instances For
Flexible accommodation gives the correct presupposition p ∨ q.
Complete truth table: flexible accommodation predicts the right value at every world.
Flexible accommodation is always defined (never undefined).
Weak Kleene disjunction with meta-assertion on each disjunct.
Equations
- One or more equations did not get rendered due to their size.
Instances For
Meta-assertion allows falsity (unlike Strong Kleene).
But meta-assertion loses the presupposition: the disjunction is false even when neither presupposition holds (if we had such a world). More concretely, 𝒜φ_p ∨_s ψ_q presupposes only ¬𝒜ψ_q → p (Yagi (11)), not the expected p ∨ q.
