There are many other [Edit: was originally ‘more’] useful things for philosophers (including Quinean naturalists) to be doing besides just working with scientists to figure out why our brains produce confused philosophical debates.
Perhaps. But it is difficult to imagine any less complete problem dissolution being successful at actually shutting down that confused philosophical debate, and thus freeing those first-class minds to actually do those hypothetical useful things.
BTW, by “more” I meant “additional”: I meant that there “are many other useful things for philosophers… to be doing...” I’ve now clarified the wording in the original comment.
