It's sadly common these days with "non-classical logics"
or "synthetic pluralism", the, "ignoring definition"
or where that's defensible inside an axiomatics,
"having contradictory definition".

Some words have two definitions - a few have it that
their definitions are opposites, like "entropy",
Aristotle's and Leibnitz'. Mostly though if they're
not the same they have different contexts altogether,
so today's "pluralistic" accounts are almost always
contradictory each other, and "non-classical logics"
are quite often having contradictions in them.

(Here "classical logic" is a modal, temporal, relevance
logic, with axiomless natural deduction, that most people
find as most usual the common sense logically about logic.)

If there is no sequence of inference steps in Q from
~∃x x=S(x) to the axioms of Q then ~∃x x=S(x) is
ungrounded in the PTS atomic base of Q.

This does not mean undecidable or incomplete
it means that ~∃x x=S(x) is out-of-scope for Q.

It comes close. If ∃x x=S(x) is likewise "ungrounded" but in the
language of Q then ~∃x x=S(x) and ∃x x=S(x) are both undecidable
and Q is incomplete, bcause that is what the words mean.

Q also can't bake a birthday cake, this does not make
Q in any way "incomplete" relative to what it was
defined to do. Incomplete only counts relative to
its intended purpose. A car without an engine is
incomplete relative to a mode of transportation.

Irrelevant. The definition of completeness inly refers to the
sentences in the language of the theory. To bake a cake is an
action, not a sentence, so irrelevant.

It a misnomer and does not literally mean (as it implies)
that something is missing that could be added to make
it complete. The way that terms-of-the-art are formed
is very misleading and as much as intentionally deceptive.

"undecidable" often means input is semantically
incoherent. Whenever the input is semantically
incoherent it is more accurately called incoherent
rather than undecidable.

Food is called inedible for many reasons such as
spoilage. We could also call a railroad tie inedible
ignoring the type mismatch error. A railroad tie
is inedible for the same kind of reason that some
expressions are undecidable.

Q intentionally defined to not be able to prove ~∃x x=S(x).
A car that had its engine removed to make it undrivable
is not incomplete relative to its intended purpose.

You really need to learn that terms used in a given field have 
definitions within that field that may or may not correspond to what you 
want a term to mean, and that you actually need to learn those definitions.

In mathematics, a system is incomplete if there are statements in the 
language of that system which can neither be proven nor disproven.

That's *all* incomplete means. No more, no less. It doesn't mean that 
something is missing that could be added. It makes no reference 
whatsoever to the purpose for which a system was designed.

When mathematicians talk about rings, do you object based on the fact 
that you can't put them on your finger?

When mathematicians talk about fields, do you object based on the fact 
that nothing can graze on them?

To put things in terms of your system, the term 'incomplete' as used by 
mathematicians has a different GUID than the term 'incomplete' when used 
colloquially, just as the term 'pen' has different GUIDs depending on 
whether it is used to store pigs or ink. [note that I do not actually 
endorse the use of GUIDs; that's just plain silly].

That is the way that it usually works. In Proof Theoretic
Semantics each author has their own terms-of-the-art that
has a very similar yet not exactly the same semantic meaning
as entirely different terms-of-the-art used by another author.

Also these meanings gradually evolve over time so they
change in subtle ways from their original meanings.

Q was intentionally defined to handle less than PA
thus is not at all in any way incomplete relative
to its defined purpose.

So they could have defined "has a box of clowns" as
the situation where en expression can neither be
proven nor refuted in Q.

So we can say that the halting problem "has a box
of clowns" instead of saying that computation is
in any way limited.

And likewise "undecidable" really means that the
expression is semantically incoherent. We could
equally call this "has a square box of clowns".

The definition of 'incomplete' makes no reference whatsoever to 'defined 
purpose'. If there are sentences in the language of Q which can neither 
be proven nor disproven by Q, then Q is incomplete. And it is.

Is "has a box of clowns" in the language of Q? No. I didn't think so, so 
your example is completely irrelevant.

It is an idiom stipulated to mean:
sentences in the language of Q which can neither
be proven nor disproven by Q

When Peter Schroeder-Heister talks about
The Definitional View of Atomic Systems in Proof-Theoretic Semantics
How close is this to Dag Prawitz Theory of Grounds?

Same ball park, they never seem to ever talk
about exact the same thing, yet it is within
PTS just the same.

My 28 year goal has been to make
"true on the basis of meaning expressed in language"
reliably computable for the entire body of knowledge.
The complete structure of this system is now defined.

The entire body of knowledge expressed in language is
comprised of two types of relations between finite strings:
(a) *Axioms* Expressions of language that are stipulated to be true.

My system bridges the analytic/synthetic distinction by
expressly encoding all empirical "atomic facts" in a formal
language such as CycL of the Cyc project.

(b) *Inference Rules* Expressions of language that are semantically
entailed syntactically from (a) and/or (b).

Q doesn't have idioms. That's a natural language concept alien to 
theories of arithmetic.

These questions are relevant because they get to whether your objection 
to the term 'incomplete' extends to other terms as well. If Gödel had 
used the term 'fnord' instead of incomplete, I suspect you wouldn't have 
the same objection to it. Your objection seems to be entirely based on 
the fact that you are reading things into the term 'incomplete' which 
aren't actually there based on your own interpretation of the colloquial 
term 'incomplete'. But the mathematical term and the colloquial term are 
different, just as the mathematical term 'ring' differs from the 
colloquial term. Technical terms often diverge significantly from 
colloquial ones. For example, to an astronomer, oxygen is classified as 
a metal despite the fact that this doesn't correspond to everyday usage. 
This doesn't cause problems for astronomers.

In Proof Theoretic Semantics
statements in the language of that system
which can neither be proven nor disproven

have not established that they have semantic
meaning because semantic meaning is ONLY
established in PTS by canonical proofs.

This is simply the same way that actual
meaning really works. Model theory is merely
a strange idea that was adopted because keeping
semantics and syntax together as one was too
difficult for people to figure out back when
model theory was first created.

This is a misrepresentation on your part. Whereas truth functional 
semantics takes true and false to be the semantic primatives, PTS uses 
either (depending on which author you follow) proven and not proven or 
provable and not provable as its primitives without dealing with truth 
or falsity. Thus, they would treat a statement like 'no number is 
greater than its successor' as being unprovable in Robinson Arithmetic, 
not as being meaningless as you seem to think.

Yes that is an accurate paraphrase.

You are not being consistent with you own paraphrase.
I still don't have all of the exact nuances exactly
correct because unlike every other field each author
has their own terms-of-the-art.

Of course I am being consistent. Within PTD, unproven/unprovable *is* a 
semantic value, i.e. a meaning; so you can't claim that the expression 
'no number is greater than its successor' isn't meaningful in Q.

Can you provide a single example of someone working within PTS who has 
taken issue with incompleteness? Incompleteness exists in PTS just as 
much as it exists in any other framework.

Impossibly provable in Q means cannot possibly

My 28 year goal has been to make
"true on the basis of meaning expressed in language"
reliably computable for the entire body of knowledge.
The complete structure of this system is now defined.

The entire body of knowledge expressed in language is
comprised of two types of relations between finite strings:
(a) *Axioms* Expressions of language that are stipulated to be true.

My system bridges the analytic/synthetic distinction by

'impossibly' in English is an intensifier, i.e. 'he was impossibly 
strong' means 'he was exceedingly strong'. I have no idea what 
'impossibly provable' might mean, but if you intended to say 
'unprovable' then you are misinterpreting PTS. Unprovable is one of the 
two semantic primitives used by PTS (the other being provable).

I would really like you to answer the above question. I've never seen 
any author writing within PTS express any misgivings about the fact that 
some formal systems are inconsistent. This is something that you are 
projecting onto that theory based on the fact that you really do not 
understand it.

This exactly and perfectly what it precisely means.

% This sentence is not true.
?- LP = not(true(LP)).
LP = not(true(LP)).
?- unify_with_occurs_check(LP, not(true(LP))).
false.

If you understand PTS you will understand that their
reasoning cannot possibly get to incompleteness.

I have been trying to get you to understand this
reasoning and you are making some progress.

That whole thing is totally out-of-sync with the
way that they think.

My 28 year goal has been to make
"true on the basis of meaning expressed in language"
reliably computable for the entire body of knowledge.
The complete structure of this system is now defined.

The entire body of knowledge expressed in language is
comprised of two types of relations between finite strings:
(a) *Axioms* Expressions of language that are stipulated to be true.

My system bridges the analytic/synthetic distinction by
expressly encoding all empirical "atomic facts" in a formal
language such as CycL of the Cyc project.

(b) *Inference Rules* Expressions of language that are semantically
entailed syntactically from (a) and/or (b).

If it means 'unprovable' then say 'unprovable' or 'impossible to prove'. 
Don't use a nonsensical expression like 'impossibly provable'.

That's an example, not a definition. Examples don't take the place of 
definitions.

Then you should be able to produce an actual citation to this effect. As 
it stands, this is simply a baseless assertion on your part, and since 
your grasp of PTS doesn't seem particularly strong, it carries very 
little weight.

You keep offering PTS as an alternative to truth-functional semantics, 
but incompleteness has absolutely nothing to do with truth-functional 
semantics as the definition of incompleteness doesn't even mention truth 
or falsity (or semantics). If anything, it is more aligned with PTS than 
with TFS since it pertains to theoremhood i.e. provability, the semantic 
primitive used by PTS.

A system is incomplete if there is an expression in the language of that 
system, P such that neither P nor ¬P can be derived as a theorem. 
'Theorem' is a notion pertaining to provability, not truth.

Impossibly provable because remains stuck
in an infinite loop.

It is the only perfect example of an idea from
Proof Theoretic Semantics that seems to stay a
little bit nebulous because each author uses their
own author specific terminology.

Each author uses their own author specific terminology
and the meanings slightly change across authors.

Truth as an Epistemic Notion --- Dag Prawitz
What is the appropriate notion of truth for
sentences whose meanings are understood in
epistemic terms such as proof or ground for
an assertion? It seems that the truth of such
sentences has to be identified with the existence
of proofs or grounds...

That is simply not the way that it works in Proof Theoretic Semantics.
