A belated meta-response to Caledonian: this is your earlier remark to which I referred. We may have no more than a terminological difference. As I said above, I would (hope to) never say “A exists relative to B”, only that A was detectable, rationally inferable, etc., relative to B. It’s too confusing to use “existence” as if it only means “epistemically assertible existence”.
