Bas van Fraassen has given an extensive critical discussion of this interpretation; he has also suggested an improvement, in the form of an additional postulate weakly relating the description of the same system given by different observers (van Fraassen 2010).
One can get these connections back, however, by adding additional postulates to T, such as '∀x(Bachelor(x) ⊃ Male(x))', or '∀x(Elephant(x) ⊃ Animal(x))'.
We remedy this weakness by proposing four additional postulates, which are sound relative to a qualitative version of probabilistic conditioning.
The so-called objectivists see the probability axioms as incomplete, waiting to be supplemented by additional postulates that determine the probabilities with which inquiry should begin.
Based on the physical interaction between HESX1 and DNMT1 shown in the present study, we postulate that HESX1 may induce permanent gene silencing by an additional mechanism of action, namely the specific methylation of CpG residues of HESX1 target genes.
In addition to the transport of iron across the outer membrane by TBDTs, an additional ferric iron uptake system is postulated, but the corresponding outer membrane receptor has not yet been identified [ 21].
By 2002, an additional 77 did.
The debate is reviewed by Davies and Egan (2013) who helpfully focus on the distinction between the adoption and the maintenance of the delusional hypothesis and argue that there is no need to postulate an additional reason why people hang on to their delusions (a bias towards conservatism or empirical adequacy).
Alternatively, by sliding either 5 NT gap by 1 NT, and therefore at the cost of postulating an additional NT substitution in one lineage or the other, one obtains an alignment in which the grasses and Joinvillea share a 5 NT deletion.
