OK. But it seemed to me you said that is better not to
make unnecessary assumption.
My only ontological assumption is that existence is logical
consistency. This assumption gives rise to the set-theoretic
multiverse, and I don't mean just ZF or ZFC but all consistent
versions of pure set theory. You add assumptions that restrict
this set-theoretic multiverse to arithmetic.
"Logical consistency" is likely not needed for existence.

I disagree. I already mentioned dialetheism and I think it's
nonsensical because it accepts the existence of objects that are not
what they are.
You're confusing objects and sentences.

Such "objects" are nothing. And unless you arbitrarily block logical
explosion, one inconsistency will make all ontology meaningless, even
the property of existence will not be different from non-existence.
