But non-real fish aren't really fish. "You're a fish." "No, I'm not!"
"Yes you are, I just pictured you as a fish, so you're an imaginary
fish. Furthemore, you're a fish of species Toyota." "But Toyota is
not a fish species!" "Yes, I just imagined that it is, so it is an
imaginary fish species." So you would have to accept things like
{do finpe la toiotas} as true statements. Anything and everything
would be fish.
