Sorites Rule

The Sorites Rule concerns the idea of vagueness in categories, like "heap" or "tall." It suggests that making small changes—like removing one grain of sand—rarely shifts something from one category to another. However, repeated small changes can eventually lead to a clear difference. The rule highlights how vague boundaries can make it tricky to precisely define when a change becomes significant, illustrating the challenge of drawing clear lines in fuzzy categories. Essentially, it explores how gradual variations can lead to noticeable differences, even if individual changes seem insignificant.
