| Mar 7, 2014 at 15:02 | comment | added | shambulator | I found my brain starting to hurt while writing the question :) The "fictitious content" has more to do with the factual content of the claim, independent of whether it's actually been made or who made it. The "fictitious existence" necessarily refers to an instance of the claim being made by someone, regardless of whether the claim is true or not. The two ideas seem to intersect in the concept of "fictitiousness", though the former seems the more usual interpretation. | |
