 The argument may also be resisted by denying AR2 and identifying some ontologically significant difference between islands and incars. For instance, a certain sort of anti-realist will say that which objects there are is largely determined by which objects we take there to be. Accordingly, the very fact that we take there to be islands but not incars marks an ontologically significant difference between them. Alternatively, one may attempt to identify an ontologically significant difference between the ordinary and extraordinary objects without endorsing anti-realism. In the case at hand, one might resist AR2 by insisting that islands have importantly different persistence conditions from incars. Incars are meant to cease to exist when their matter ceases to be inside a garage. But islands, contra hypothesis, do not cease to exist when they are completely submerged; they merely cease to be  islands.[36]
