 The picture is rather confusing. While in some cases, e.g., (34b) or (35), intermediate accommodation seems possible and sometimes even preferred, in other cases it doesn’t seem possible at all. And things get even more confused than this. Thus far, we have taken our examples at face value, but some authors have argued that we shouldn’t because, as a matter of fact, intermediate accommodation doesn’t exist. For instance, according to Beaver (2001), the presupposition in (35) is taken as evidence that the topic of conversation is car-owning Germans, and it is this topic that restricts the domain of the quantifier, making intermediate accommodation redundant. See also von Fintel (1995) and Geurts and van der Sandt (1999) for discussion.
