Parry’s logic of Analytic Implication
and Relevance logic are two sensible systems
that get rid of the Principle of Explosion.

It was dead-obviously correct to anyone paying
any attention at all that every contradiction
only semantically entails FALSE.

The only reason that it took more than five minutes
for everyone to agree to this is that logicians are
a herd of sheep and mindlessly obey what they have
been taught even if this means that they must jump
off a cliff.

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).

False, as you have admitted on the record:

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).

And now you lie about making such an admission when the evidence is

Your dishonestly knows no bounds.

Getting rid of the principle of explosion makes as much sense as
getting rid of fire alarms. It makes much more sense to get rid
of fires and false premises.

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).

Matter of opinion, but I think that most of people would consder
getting rid of fires is more rational that getting rid of fire
alarms.

Matter of correctly and coherently computing the notion
of truth. My correction to the Principle of Explosion:
(P ∧ ~P) ⊢ FALSE
FALSE ⊢ FALSE

It is not a fire alarm it is getting rid of semantics
within inference. My correct reasoning correction to
logic gets rid of every type of inference besides
semantic entailment.

Validity and Soundness
A deductive argument is said to be valid if
and only if it takes a form that makes it
impossible for the premises to be true and
the conclusion nevertheless to be false.
Otherwise, a deductive argument is said to
be invalid. https://iep.utm.edu/val-snd/

*That big mistake is corrected thusly*
A deductive argument is said to be valid if
and only if its conclusion is a necessary
consequence of all of its premises Otherwise,
a deductive argument is said to be invalid.

P ⇒ Q
P → Q
P ⊃ Q

are all abolished and replaced with the binary
form of logical necessity: P □ Q

Getting rid of any type of inference does not make much difference
as long as you get the same conclusions through other inferences.
Only getting rid of some conscusions it makes a significant
difference. But you have never shown an example of getting rid of
a conclusion without losing a semantic entailment.

You don't need any of above if you have ¬, ∨, and ∧.

POE always breaks semantic entailment

The notion of valid inference that I just established
is the foundation of all semantic entailment.

There is no 'binary form of logical necessity. □ is a unary operator and 
an expression like P □ Q makes absolutely no sense.

If you want to use this as a binary operator you'd actually need to 
*define* it. You don't seem to grasp this. You can't just introduce a 
new operator and expect people to know what it means.

Also, moving into the domain of modal logic would be an incredibly 
strange thing for you to do given that in previous posts you claimed to 
reject the idea of models. But modal logic is *replete* with models. 
Modal logic operates over a set of many models. □P means that P is true 
in all accessible models of the system.

That is why I just created one.

Q is a necessary consequence of P makes perfect sense
and corrects a fundamental error in the definition of
valid deductive inference.

□ Already means necessity, it is not that hard unless

That would normally be written as □(P → Q), not as the nonsensical P □ 
Q. But you claim to have gotten rid of →, so how this is to be 
interpreted remains a mystery (and getting rid of → makes no sense since 
→ represents a specific truth table which still exists regardless of 
whether you've assigned a symbol to it or not)

That does not perfectly preserve the complete
necessity between P and Q.

P □ Q   P → Q
0 ? 0   0 1 0
0 ? 1   0 1 1
1 0 0   1 0 0
1 1 1   1 1 1
Q is a necessary consequence of P
is the same as English If P then Q
(a) false when P is true and Q is false
(b) true  when P is true and Q is true
(c) otherwise does not have a truth value.

To make it easy to understand we have the above
propositional logic truth tables. They provide
the framework.

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).

What on earth does it mean for there to be a "complete necessity between 
P and Q". Necessity applies to propositions. It doesn't hold *between* 
things.

□(P → Q) means that Q is necessarily implied by P. If you mean something 
other than that you're really going to have to clarify what you mean.

So again your veering into the territory of three-valued logic. If a 
truth table contains any symbol other than T or F, you're dealing with a 
three or more valued logic which means you have to completely redefine 
every single logical operator before you can proceed.

And there's nothing about the above table which in any way captures the 
meaning of 'necessity' so it's entirely unclear why you want to use the 
□ symbol here. Your '□' doesn't have any relation to necessity any more 
than '→' does above.

Also note that formal logic is *not* c++. There's no such thing as 
operator overloading, so you can't take a unary operator and use it for 
some ill-defined binary operation as well. You need a new symbol since □ 
is already taken.

P □ Q makes as much sense as P ¬ Q or P ∀ Q

>> So how would you interpret 'necessity' without models?

I note you didn't answer this. The notion of necessity in modal logic is 
intrinsically tied to model theory.

How exactly are you defining 'necessity' if you're not making use of models?

The English if P then Q only actually tells you
P(true) then necessarily Q(true)
Q(false) then necessarily P(false)

IT DOES NOT TELL YOU MORE THAN THIS AND
IT IS STUPID MISTAKE TO ASSUME OTHERWISE
THE WAY THAT IMPLICATION STUPIDLY DOES.

Do you know what propositional logic is?
then that is one way to avoid models.

You're introducing the word 'necessarily' here without any attempt to 
explain what is meant by this (by you).

What is the difference between

a) Q is a necessary consequence of P.
b) Q is a consequence of P

Give an example where b holds true but where a is false. If you can't do 
that, then your use of 'necessary' is completely meaningless verbiage.

Propositional calculus uses models. It's also extremely limited.

I always use the ordinary English meaning.
If P is true then Q is impossibly false.
If Q is false the P is impossibly true.

'impossibly false' and 'impossibly true' aren't ordinary English.

I asked for an example illustrating the different between 'necessary 
consequence' and mere 'consequence'. The two examples above don't even 
mention the word 'necessary'.

No.
