      XPost: comp.theory, sci.logic, sci.math       From: polcott333@gmail.com              Rejecting expressions of formal language       having pathological self-reference              Explained how expressions with pathological self       reference can simply be rejected as semantically/       syntactically unsound thus preventing undefinability,       and undecidability.              This sentence is not true: "This sentence is not true"       is true only because the inner sentence is semantically       unsound. The inner sentence is formalized in Minimal       Type Theory as LP := ~True(LP).       (where A := B means A is defined as B).              https://philpapers.org/rec/OLCREO              Can someone review my actual reasoning       elaborated in the paper?              --       Copyright 2025 Olcott "Talent hits a target no one else can hit; Genius       hits a target no one else can see."
