Of course we would all like it if the "real world", which we all are compelled to engage in strategic interactions with (most) every day, could be neatly systematized into categories of Genuine Existents and we could throw the rest to Art Appreciation. Unfortunately we cannot do away with Kant's "Copernican Revolution" as easily as modern metaphysicians would like us to; at some point even the most "realistic" framework for objective knowledge cashes out in terms of human values and projects, at which point the aestheticist starts to look like the realist all too often. Even from a naturalist standpoint, Armstrong's sketchy metaphysics fails to appreciate how science must needs be a human activity -- if it is to be learnt, *someone* must learn it *somehow*. Other Australians have gone deep into the waters of semi-paradox because of this; Armstrong simply pronounces upon The Way It Ought to Be, providing a dogmatic early-modern metaphysics with the word "God" crossed out. You could have done the same.
Though it is short, it is blissfully so.
