    Does he ever actually call it a sense? All I recall is that he says it is
    "verifiable", a source of knowledge. In any case, one cannot demonstrate
    truth of value judgments by correspondence. That is, if I say X is better
    than Y, and you say Y is better than X, then there is nothing further that
    either of us can physically point to to determine who is right (we may be
    able to make non-sense-perceptible justifications, but those are not done
    through correspondence).
