 Nickel (2012) offers a different kind of counterexample to Cohen’s account: cases involving polarization. To illustrate, Nickel asks us to consider a case in which some Dutch sailors are among the best in the world. Moreover, the proportion of Dutch sailors who meet this high standard exceeds the proportion of German sailors and the proportion of French sailors who meet it. Nevertheless, suppose that most Dutch sailors are very poor sailors. Intuitively, the generic “Dutchmen are good sailors” seems false in this case. But Cohen’s account implies that it is true, for the probability that a Dutchmen is a good sailor is higher than the probability that someone from a relevant alternative country is a good sailor, and the homogeneity constraint is satisfied.
