The difference between 'stated' and 'displayed' in a sentence that the
origanotor means to be true seems fallacious to me.
But anyway, there is a example in CLL p.131, where Cowan says:
'Using exact numbers as inner quantifiers.....you are STATING that exactly
that many things exist'
and also
'lo ci gerku cu blabi'.... CLAIMS also that there are only three dogs
in the universe!
