4. Formal Logic / F. Set Theory ST / 4. Axioms for Sets / p. Axiom of Reducibility

21717	Reducibility undermines type ramification, and is committed to the existence of functions [Quine, by Linsky,B]
	Full Idea: Quine charges that the axiom of Reducibility both undoes the effect of the ramification, and commits the theory to a platonist view of propositional functions (which is a theory of sets, once use/mention confusions are cleared up).
	From: report of Willard Quine (Set Theory and its Logic [1963], p.249-58) by Bernard Linsky - Russell's Metaphysical Logic 6.1
