If I look at the vase and it has the properties ["dirty","boring","cheap","£0.45"]Magnus Anderson wrote: ↑Fri Sep 29, 2023 7:15 pmIt's a property of the vase, by definition. It's merely not a property that describes something that is fully contained within the physical constitution of the vase.FlashDangerpants wrote: ↑Fri Sep 29, 2023 10:48 amWhat you are describing there is not a property of the vase, it is a system relationship property between valuer and the valued.
It's similar to how position is the property of every physical object even though it says nothing about the physical constitution of the object it belongs to.
But somebody else looks at the same vase at the same time and sees ["smudged","inspirational","vauable","£700"]
The vase now holds at one and the same time, the mutually exclusive properties of "boring" and "inspirational"?
Talk of an object having it's own properties are nonsense if these properties are dependent upon observers. To say it holds the property of being boring for flash but inspirational for Wendy simply kicks the can down the road. These are private properties that nobody can ever be right or wrong about.
