Indeed. But how do you explain sight to a man born blind? (It's even harder to do from a philosophical standpoint than a practical one, that.)
So do we fight for it? The banner of ambiguity will draw few riders... the rallying cry of "We're smack in the middle! Hear us!" will drown out the noise of our battle trum... bassoons (because they're not wholly brass, nor wholly woodwind, of course*)... and when the battle is over, will anyone know there ever was one?
*or is that oboes? I can never remember.
