 A view based on the distinction between encoding and exemplifying avoids the standard objections to Meinongianism while promising to deliver that view’s many benefits. The semantics and logic is straightforward and simple and surface forms of the natural language sentences of interest in this article match their deep logical forms. But the ontological costs are evident. There is semantic and logical simplicity at a metaphysical price.
