Chef Ramsey makes a cake, everyone has a slice and says it's the tastiest and best looking cake they've ever had.
Jamie Oliver comes along and says "No, no! You're wrong, it's not a tasty cake and it looks terrible, it's just tastier and prettier than you've had before".
Does the fact that everyone, other than Jamie Oliver, is claiming the cake to be incredibly tasty and the best looking not by default make the cake both tasty and great looking?
Surely the proof is in the eating?
- dmitriid 9y ago>it's the tastiest and best looking cake they've ever had. I've italicised the relevant part. Let's say, all the cakes they've ever had were baked dirt. Now Chef Ramsey has come along and baked soft dirt with sugar and sprinkles on top. - Is it still dirt? Yes. - Is it the the tastiest and best looking cake they've ever had? Also yes. - Is it not a tasty cake and it looks terrible, it's just tastier and prettier than you've had before? Yes. This also goes to show that arguments from analogy are inherently false, including mine ;)
