The literary open question

Henry Moore has the open question argument, I'm going to twist it to see if there's a contradiction within literary/fine art pursuits. I'm not going to address the refutations and endorsements of such a refutation regarding naturalistic arguments, that's going to be an untouched rabbit hole.

There's something where somebody will enter the question of literary that becomes pretentious, when the amount of attention is laid on top of it before. This is only the infinite regress, this is where boundary that happen to be enforced, like a price point or the ending of a book.

It's one way to apply Occam's razor to the extreme end of the spectrum of literary meaning. There are criticisms to the commercial, and criticism to the literary. Redundant literaryism.
