Interesting. In an earlier conversation, I suggested to you that realism about composite entities such as those you list above (and I guess even quarks would be composite with respect to elementary arithmetic) could ultimately be justified only by including the logic of the knower. You seemed to disagree, but perhaps your point is that such realism is epistemological rather than ontological?
