Full Idea
Maybe the truth-maker panegyrists have misconstrued the logical form of 'makes true'. They have taken it to be a verb like 'x hits y', when really it is akin to the connective '→' or 'because'.
Clarification
'panegyrists' are enthusiasts
Gist of Idea
Maybe 'makes true' is not an active verb, but just a formal connective like 'because'?

A Reaction
[He cites Melia 2005] This isn't any sort of refutation of truth-making, but an offer of how to think of the phenomenon if you reject the big principle. I like truth-making, but resist the 'makes' that brings unthought propositions into existence.
