ummm..

language consists of a stream of continuous recursive disambiguation consisting of what we would call stories of changes in state, culminating in a series

1.comprehension,

2.agreement/disagreement,

3.warranty of due diligence. (limiting)

When you say ‘declarative’ i use the term more common in the philosophy of science ‘promissory’, and when duly diligent ‘testimonial’.

So your term ‘declarative’ means opinion, the mainstream considers it promissory, and I consider it testimonial.

The difference between these three claims is demand. Language satisfies DEMAND for INFALLIBILITY in the given circumstance.

THe market for due diligence increases as externalities to the speech increase.

This is demonstrated everywhere in all walks of life.

It’s not an opinion it’s the evidence.
