 Another class of applications attempts to eliminate the commitments of science and common sense to (some or all) complex objects. For instance, instead of employing usual singular quantification over tables and chairs, it is proposed that we use plural quantification over mereological atoms arranged tablewise or chairwise (Rosen and Dorr 2002; Hossack 2000; van Inwagen 1990). For instance, instead of saying that there is a chair in one’s office, one should say that there are some atoms in one’s office arranged chairwise. In this way one appears to avoid committing oneself to the existence of a chair. Note that such analyses require PFO+, not just PFO, since the new predicates “are arranged \(F\)-wise” are non-distributive.
