Spectrum reasoning. The statement, "X is extreme" (or excessive). 

I't is true that it is a relative statement but one can add an enthymeme to it 
to make a propositional statement. e.g.

compare "X is extreme" thefore X cannot b true or false.

with

"X is extreme"
"Y is less extreme"
therefore X is extreme.

     or

This book is heavy compared to a feather, therefore this book is heavy by 
comparison.
