| Often one's level of interest in a genre is ''purely generic''. When the relevant genre is regarded as an indexed family of dyadic relations, ''G'' = {''G''<sub>''j''</sub>}, then this generic interest is tantamount to having one's concern rest with the union of all the dyadic relations in the genre. | | Often one's level of interest in a genre is ''purely generic''.

| * In a logical context, if ''j'' is a piece of evidence that ''S'' is true, and ''j'' is a piece of evidence that ''T'' is true, then it follows by these very facts alone that ''j'' is a piece of evidence that the conjunction "''S'' and ''T''" is true. This is analogous to a situation where, if a person ''j'' draws a set of three lines ''AB'', ''BC'', and ''AC'', then ''j'' has drawn a triangle ''ABC'', whether ''j'' recognizes the fact on reflection and further consideration or not. | | * In a logical context, if ''j'' is a piece of evidence that ''S'' is true, and ''j'' is a piece of evidence that ''T'' is true, then it follows by these very facts alone that ''j'' is a piece of evidence that the conjunction "''S'' and ''T''" is true.

− | Some readings of the staging relations are tantamount to statements of (a possibly higher order) model theory. For example, the predicate ''P'' : ''J'' → '''B''' = {0, 1}, defined by ''P''(''j'') ⇔ "''j'' proposes ''x'' an instance of ''y'' ", is a proposition that applies to a domain of propositions, or elements with the evidentiary import of propositions, and its models are therefore conceived to be certain propositional entities in ''J''. And yet all of these expressions are just elaborate ways of stating the underlying assertion which says that there exists a triple (''j'', ''x'', ''y'') in the genre ''G''(<font face="system">:<s><</s></font>). | + | Some readings of the staging relations are tantamount to statements of (a possibly higher order) model theory.
