That seems to be entirely analytic philosophy. My problem is that analytical philosophy is culturally irrelevant. Anthropologists, sociologists, art theorists, and artists talk about continental philosophy, Saussurian (!) linguistics, and psychoanalytic theory. The only things they use from analytic philosophy are arguments like Godel’s incompleteness theorem, Wittgenstein’s later stuff, or Quine’s ontological relativism, that they interpret as saying that analytic philosophy doesn’t work.

Analytic philosophers will find the strength to carry on, somehow.
Good for analytic philosphy, but my real concern is with literature. Literature today is captive to bad philosophy. Poetry, even more explicitly so.
