And the linguistic and practical usage of difference is coherent according to appearance, just like the linguistic and practical usage of non-difference for proponents of difference.
To explain:
For proponents of absolute difference, the linguistic and practical usage of non-difference is according to appearance, not according to the fact.
Even for proponents of combination, because the universal object is a different thing, the linguistic and practical usage of non-difference among differences is merely according to appearance.
Even for those who assert non-difference in reality, because the entity is variegated and does not recur, both forms of linguistic and practical usage are merely according to appearance;
it has been shown that it does not correspond to reality.
