I was going to have this horrible equivocation at the end of my
paper, but then I realized that if I changed it around a little
it would a) be a suggestion rather than an equivocation, b) be a good twist to end the paper, and c) bring Wittgenstein in line
with my own philosophical preconceptions. Woohoo!
I have to write a couple hundred words more near the beginning of
the paper, nailing down a definition of "mistake". Then I'll probably
have 1600 words, which is five pages. Any more I can add while tightening everything up will spill
onto the sixth page, making my paper meet the length requirement (especially
since my previous two papers were also too short).
