“Probable Data”
|
|
Underneath Facts/Truth, this article uses supposed data as there is no eyewitness accounts of the manticores further existence. The author only brings up accounts of sightings that have happened in the past.

The likely
|
“Some measure of (intuitive) statistical judgement”
|
|
The article is using the idea that until there is proof to the contrary that manticores exists, we will presume that their existence is real, or has occurred at least in the past.

Abstract/ Universal?

Not concrete “truth” ”justice” / Not specific “truth” “justice”

By describing the character of the manticore, its physical features, the sounds it makes and its eating habits we are increasing the value of this specific creatures existence.

From what you have here, it's possible to make the argument that the article is trying to persuade people to believe in the Manticore based on the impossibility of knowing whether it actually existed. With the sightings in the past, the nods to historical text and the absence of any real evidence, I think you could say that the article is claiming the Manticore is real simply because of how ambiguous its existence actually is. There's no way of knowing it doesn't exist, so people should just accept that there is a possibility that it does.
