After further thought, I find these sentences to be problematic.
Within mathematics, if a sentence is not placed in a specified contact, then
the reader is open to multiple potential assignments of meanings and possibly
multiple possible arrangements of consequences.
In the case of “signs”, I would suggest that without specification of the
location of the sign, both the 2nd and 3ns are open to the reader’s mind (seme).
This example of seeking to category theory as a generic form of absolute
vagueness is remote from the trichotomy. Legisssign is a direct consequence of
genesis from “argument” and symbol.
Further, the sequence of
O—>S—> I
As an implicative sequence would not be an causal axiomatic sequence as a
consequence of the multiple possible meanings of a sign or the context in which
the sign occurs.
BTW, are you aware of CSP’s reference to Maxwell’s equations?
