Thanks for the link. PMS Hacker makes much of his initials and this seems to be
a shibboleth of some of his class [AN, AJ, PF, JL], in his case stretching to
three [though HLA can surely claim priority] but uniquely in defiance of (or
perhaps a wry nod to) broader cultural norms and meanings:-

On a less serious note: the article surely scotches any idea that the
saying-showing distinction is anything other than absolutely fundamental to the
Tractatus? [At its outset, ten groups are specified of "numerous truths that
seemingly cannot be stated, but which arenevertheless apparently asserted in
the course of the Tractatus."]

This should show it. Thanks for further comments which I'll re-read and
try to comment. Cheers.
