9. Objects / B. Unity of Objects / 3. Unity Problems / e. Vague objects

9602	Common sense and classical logic are often simultaneously abandoned in debates on vagueness [Williamson]
	Full Idea: The constraints of common sense and classical logic are often simultaneously abandoned in debates on vagueness.
	From: Timothy Williamson (The Philosophy of Philosophy [2007], After)
	A reaction: Wiliamson has described himself (in my hearing) as a 'rottweiller realist', but presumably the problem of vagueness interests a lot of people precisely because it pushes us away from common sense and classical logic.
