Before we get into details,
we (some of us anyway) don't appreciate being referred to as "disciples" OK ;-)

My intial response is to distinguish between.

A "final theory" of truth
A theory of "final truth"

MoQ seems close to the former, a fundamental framework for "truth",
whereas the latter is wishful thinking, something I believe Rorty
would pooh-pooh as a pointless pursuit. Wouln't we all ?

I'm no Rorty expert though.
