Then you should know that coherentism isn’t what you said it was.

So, what is "coherentism", according to you? As far as I know, it's a rejection of the correspondence theory of the truth, motivated primarily by the correspondence theory of the truth supposedly being unable to account for counter-factual hypotheticals (but see the answer I received on StackExchange arguing there are indeed ways to account for counter-factual hypotheticals within the correspondence theory of the truth). Coherentism can be summarized as "A true statement is one that is coherent with other statements one believes."
