And I thought I told you that you are making this a definitional
matter, rather than looking at what true is. I mean, eventually
it comes to definition but they should be based on what the
referent is imparting to us, yes?

You've got truth being grains of sand in a formation, and
the literal formation of an orally-represented statement.

I think you're misidentifying the nature of truth. In Randian
terms, you are classifying by inessentials.
