Edwina, Jon, List,
The following observation is a good starting point for analyzing the
development iof Peirce's thought and writing from 1903 to 1908 and later:

I have likewise already read (and carefully studied) about a dozen articles

Edwina, List:
In light of our longstanding and all-too-often contentious disagreements
about Peirce's speculative grammar, I generally prefer to refrain from
direct engagement these days, but I have decided to make an exception in
this case. Hopefully, I will not regret it.

Jon,
I have read your comments, and I have read several articles by Tony Jappy that
explain these issues in far greater depth and generality. I strongly urge you
to study his writings.

I am aware that JAS’s use of ‘determines’ is not synonymous with ‘causes’ or
‘precedes’ - but is ‘logically constrains’. However, something that ‘logically
constrains’ DOES, functionally operate as causal and precedent to other forces-
otherwise - how would it function as that constraint?.
List:
While I am at it, I might as well elaborate on my third reason for
believing that the proper order of the interpretant trichotomies for sign
classification is final, then dynamical, then immediate--namely, the ten
sign classes that result from applying the rule of determination are much
more

I think it’s almost useless to discuss these issues, since I’m aware that JAS
has his set of beliefs about the Peircean framework - and I [ and others] -
have our own beliefs - which may or may not, align with his.
But just a few points:
1] JAS quote Peirce: “ No matter what his opinion a
