Nanopublication — Foot's ethics: rooting moral judgment in human nature, from trolley cases to double effect
This is a Stanford Encyclopedia of Philosophy entry surveying Philippa Foot's metaethics, moral rationalism, applied ethics (trolley problem, doctrine of double effect) and late ethical naturalism; the ideamorphism framework's vocabulary of emission, wave, ouverture, codex and diffraction targets artistic creation and reception, and has no point of contact with a philosophical exposition concerned with argument, rational justification and normative truth-claims — forcing the two together would misdescribe both.

Propositional grid [2]
Read this grid. “Not evaluated” does not mean the source has nothing to say about that proposition. It means the reading did not instruct it. That is not a result, and it counts in no denominator. A silence, by contrast, is a finding: the reading touched the proposition without concluding, or noted its absence itself.
Not evaluated (37) — P1, P2, P3, P3a, P4, P5, P6, P7, P8, P9, P10, P11, P12, P13, P14, P14a, P14b, P15, P16, P16a, P17, P18, P18a, P19, P19a, P20, P21, P22, P23, P24, P25, P26, P27, P28, P29, P30, P31
Overall verdict: DECLINED:no-purchase — taxonomy of the August 2026 pass, predating the move to relational verdicts. Kept as metadata: the gap between the two forms is data, not residue. This reading’s judgement is in the grid above.
