I quite enjoy this story, but I seriously doubt whether it has ever succeeded in restoring a naive view of truth. If someone already had a naive view of truth, I suspect this would merely disrupt it if it did anything at all; and if they didn’t already have a naive view of truth, I doubt this would help.
Hi! I’m a counterexample. This just killed my leanings toward coherentism (it’s just a good heuristic) and convinced me that correspondence is pragmatic. Sure, if people haven’t had these conversations before, this post might be disruptive; but it did in fact help me.
