In which case, if Bellini ever references anything self-referential, the idea that he always tells the truth is not a statement about the physical world. It’s likely that the origin of the paradox is that the claim that Bellini always tells the truth and the rest of the scenario are contradictory.
I notice we’re somehow not debating what Bellini always telling the truth means for the truth value of the inscribedtext which may have had no meaning to him?
