To accomplish this desideratum, he proposes that the best explanation for our observed regularities is a sort of \u2018best before date\u2019 necessity. That is, necessary connections may break down and they are not by default timeless. He develops arguments against my defence of the necessitarian solution accomplished in \u2018On induction: time-limited necessity vs. timeless necessity\u2019. Namely, he alleges that his proposal does not imply any further inductive generalization to Armstrong\u2019s timeless necessity and it continues to establish new inferences regarding the unobserved.
