Many thanks to *you* Daian for your attentive and nuanced engagement with this topic. Truly impressive to see a PhD thesis that - rather than going usually modular in chapters structure - takes on a very difficult philosophical task and carries it through chapter by chapter with analytical rigor. 👏👏

Many congrats to Dr @daianbica.bsky.social for a brilliant PhD defence of a fascinating PhD thesis on Perspectival realism and a Perspectival account of Lewis’s Best System Analysis of laws — in the words of Daian’s intro ‘friends of epistemic humility, let us all unite!’ 👏👏
