If you are only going to play head games you will be ignored.
It turns out the wellfounded proof theoretic semantics is the
key frame-of-reference that proves I have been correct about
all of these things all along.

When we anchor Wittgenstein this way he too was right all along

  'True in Russell's system' means, as was
   said: proved in Russell's system; and
   'false in Russell's system' means: the
   opposite has been proved in Russell's system
   https://www.liarparadox.org/Wittgenstein.pdf

is exactly wellfounded proof theoretic semantics
