Because somewhere you say I am a "rationalist" (which I appreciate), I
must say that I do not believe all truth are necessary apriori truth at
all.
Indeed, everything intelligible, sensible, observable, are build from
modal logics of necessity and possibility, themselves build from
incompleteness in arithmetic (which entails that notion of possibility
makes sense in the world of numbers and machines).
