There might be one territory. That is, itself, a meta-belief.
Some people think that multi-verse is much closer to our day-to-day life than it is customary to think (yes, this, by itself, is controversial, however it is something to keep in mind as a possibility). And then “one territory” would be stretching it quite a bit (although, yes, one can still reify that into the whole multi-verse as the territory, so it’s still “one territory”, just it would be larger than our typical estimates of the size of that territory).
I don’t know. Let’s consider an example. Eliezer thinks chicken don’t have qualia. Most of those who think about qualia at all think that chicken do have qualia.
I understand how OP would handle that. How do you propose to handle that?
The “assumption of one territory” presumably should imply that grown chicken normally either all have qualia or all don’t have qualia (unless we expect some strange undiscovered stratification between chicken).
So, what is one supposed to do for an “intermediate” object-level position? I mean, say I really want to know if chicken have qualia. And I don’t want to pre-decide the answer, and I notice the difference of opinions. How would you approach that?
