By the way, I suspect you call indexicality “uninteresting” because if it applies to “water”, then it probably applies to just about every word. This is true—but it is also why should be happy to count Eliezer’s position as moral realism, or do you want to call yourself a relativist about water?
I am not saying water is indexical because of PWs or whatever. I am saying that cases of indexicallity irrelvant to moral relativism are not interesting in the context of a discussion about moral relativism.
