In his paper “Flaws of Formal Relationism”, Mahrad Almotahari argues against the sort of response to Frege's Puzzle I have defended elsewhere, which he dubs ‘Formal Relationism’.

I argue in response that Formal Relationism has neither of the flaws Almotahari claims to identify.Links: PhilPapers, Thought, Pre-publication PDF.
