I 218
Given/Givenness/Field: it is not clear what it means for a situation to be "given". - Which is linguistics- and theory-dependent.
>Language dependence, >Theory depenence, >Ontology, >Existence, >Theories, >Knowledge.
Problem: there is no way to describe a situation in which the relation - "double distance".

(P3) "MG Eu (u is a matter particle and u is between x and y and xuCuy and uyCzw and the spatial relationships between x, y, z and w are the same as they actually are)" diverge.

Spelling: C: congruent.
Problem: if we define "triple distance" according to (P3), we have to show that the distance is not at the same time twice and three times. - Then we need Substantivalism or Heavy-Duty Platonism.
>Platonism, >Heavy duty platonism, >Substantivalism.
