Summary
In the Epilogue, I briefly deal with some topics that, given the current debate in the literature, might be seen as glaring omissions. First, I explain how my account of pragmatic encroachment seems unaffected by epistemic contextualism. Second, I explain how my account could incorporate a form of moral encroachment, but I also explain why I do not endorse this extension of my account. Finally, I explain how my account is compatible with the closure principle.
