   That is why I created Minimal Type Theory   
   https://philarchive.org/archive/PETMTT-4v2\   
   G := ~Provable(G)   
      
   G asserts its own unprovability.   
      
   which semantically entails   
      
   G asserts that there are no sequence of inference   
   steps that prove that they themselves do not exist.

              My 28 year goal has been to make
       "true on the basis of meaning expressed in language"
       reliably computable.

              This required establishing a new foundation
