    the following assumption about what “the usual model of vagueness” is like: vagueness requires precisi cations. Wherever there is vagueness (of the type relevant to the argument, anyway), there must be different non-vague candidate meanings “in the neighborhood of” the vague term. This is consistent with lots of views of vagueness: supervaluationism; the view I prefer, that no sentence containing a vague term is either true or false; and even epistemicism. (Perhaps it is inconsistent with the…
