Not explaining explanation
How can we explain explanation? Of course, dictionaries explain explanation. With ease, and without a word about self-reference. Though, implicitly (they explain a lot).
I wonder whether they have to in order to sell. Like scientists need to stick to objectivity in order to get funded. (This explains a hell of a lot.)
So, we can explain explanation (like we can think about thinking). Imagine we cannot. — I can’t. Now explain that you cannot!
I cannot explain why I cannot explain that I cannot explain. This is my explanation.
