10. Modality / D. Knowledge of Modality / 4. Conceivable as Possible / c. Possible but inconceivable

17958	The apparently metaphysically possible may only be epistemically possible [Vetter]
	Full Idea: Some of what metaphysicians take to be metaphysically possible turns out to be only epistemically possible.
	From: Barbara Vetter (Essence and Potentiality [2010], §4)
	A reaction: A nice clear expression of the increasingly common view that conceivability may be a limited way to grasp possibility.
