Abstract

Most philosophers of logic reject the prima facie plausible view that Even-If conditionals entail their consequents, and settle instead for accounts on which Even-Ifs entail the corresponding If-conditionals. In this paper, I provide fresh motivation for the rejected, consequent-entailing, view and sketch a pragmatic strategy to explain away seemingly proper, but apparently countervailing, uses.
