 Even if Water does not instantiate the disjunctive template, a new diagnosis of what’s wrong with McKinsey paradox could rest on the claim that the different argument yielded by expanding Water with Q10 as conclusion — call it Water* — instantiates the disjunctive template. If R is the same proposition displayed above, it is easy to see that Water* satisfies conditions (d), (b) and (c*) of the disjunctive template. Furthermore (a) is satisfied at least in the sense that it seems a priori that P9 via Q9 entails Q10 (if P10 is in background information) (cf. Wright 2011). On this novel diagnosis of non-transmissivity, what would be paradoxical is that s could earn justification for Q10 in virtue of her non-empirical justification for P9 and P10 and her knowledge of the a priori link from P9, P10 via Q9 to Q10. If one follows Wright’s (2003)  suggestion[19]  that s isentitled to accept Q10 — namely to accept the presupposition that there is a watery substance that provides ‘water’ with its extension — Water becomes innocuously transmissive, and the apparent paradox surrounding Water vanishes. This is so at least if one grants that it is a priori that water is the watery stuff of our actual acquaintance, once it is presupposed that there is any watery stuff of our actual acquaintance. For useful criticism of responses of this type to McKinsey paradox see Sainsbury (2000), Pritchard (2002), Brown (2003) and (2004), McLaughlin (2003), McKinsey (2003) and Kallestrup (2011).
