 Universalism is the permissivist thesis that composition is unrestricted: for any objects, there is a single object that is composed of those objects. What universalism does not tell us is which kinds of objects there are. Whenever there are some atoms arranged turkeywise, universalism entails that there is some object that they compose. But it remains open to universalists (like the aforementioned non-nihilistic eliminativists) to deny that this composite is a turkey. However, assuming that there are such objects as turkeys, trout, and their front and back halves, universalism will entail that there are trout-turkeys, where a trout-turkey is a single object composed of the undetached front half of a trout and the undetached back half of a turkey. These are objects that have both fins and feathers and whose finned parts may be a good distance from their feathered  parts.[7]
