For many people fatci is totally useless. It is in the language for only
one reason (based on the long-ago discussion with pc that brought in all
this epistemology stuff). That reason is that, if jetnu has an epistemology plk
placem there is no way to talk about such a thing as a fatci, which is
independent of epistemology. Some people may choose to talk about same
(especially certain kinds of philosophers, and maybe people arguing about
the semantics of djuno %^) - after all, it seems that Jorge is attempting to
claim that <djuno implies jetnu with corresponding sumti> is a fatci).
