@ Irrational

I am not interested in your fallacy of the argument from authority "Hey, we're just lay people, if you don't agree with me yet ask someone academic."

Yes, an actual world is different to a possible world. I know this. You're misrepresenting me.

The point is something cannot exist in a possible world because existence is about actuality. Possible existence in a possible world is not the same thing as actual existence in a possible world. It's equivocating to say that because the existence of something is possible in a possible world then that means it actually exists in a possible world.
