Brauer (Philos Stud 179:2751â2763, https://doi.org/10.1007/s11098-022-01793-7, 2022) has recently argued that if it is possible that there is nothing, then the correct modal logic for metaphysical modality cannot include . Here, I argue that Brauerâs argument is unsuccessful; or at the very least significantly weaker than presented. First, I outline a simple argument for why it is not possible that there is nothing. I note that this argument has a well-known solution involving the distinction between truth in and truth at a possible world. However, I then argue that once the semantics presupposed by Brauerâs argument is reformulated in terms of truth at a world, we have good reasons to think that a crucial semantic premise in Brauerâs argument should be rejected in favour of an alternative. Brauerâs argument is, however, no longer valid with this alternative premise. Thus, plausibly Brauerâs argument against is only valid, if it is not sound.
