Truth, Comprehensiveness, Practice,
The value of the Comprehensiveness Theory of Truth can be discerned in a Practical context--when Cognition is implicated in Action, and a Perspect is a Prospect. In that context, Truth is an essential part of the determination of Efficacy, and of the calculation of consequences. In other words, the more comprehensive the knowledge of the pre-conditions of a projected action, the more likely its success. Furthermore, as is the case with Perspectives, Prospectives can be mutually relative, thereby requiring a concept of Truth that can entail dependent variables. The reasoning involved in the Prisoner's Dilemma, for example, recognizes a Comprehensiveness Theory of Truth.
