	Simplicity
		Nor are scientific advocates of simplicity principles restricted to the ranks of physicists and astronomers.
		The apparent familiarity of the notion of simplicity means that it is often left unanalyzed, while its vagueness and multiplicity of meanings contributes to the challenge of pinning the notion down precisely.
		A distinction is often made between two fundamentally distinct senses of simplicity: syntactic simplicity (roughly, the number and complexity of hypotheses), and ontological simplicity (roughly, the number and complexity of things postulated).

	Certain Doubts » Simplicity (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-28)
		My own take: simplicity is one criterion among several that we have learned are such, as a matter of contingent fact, that if we prefer theories that maximize on those criteria to ones that don’t, we do a better job of getting at the truth.
		Sober’s take on simplicity in the first two works is that when simplicitiy is legitimately used in science, it is not a “superempricial” virtue - it is, instead, a stand in for some empirical claim (so it can’t legitimately help decide between predictively equivalent theories_).
		Even if you think he has made a strong case that leigitimate use of simplicity in science always depends on a stand in empirical claim or theory (that is, simplicity is not a legitimate tie breaker for predictively equivalent theories), what should we think about simplicity.
