suggestive fact i just encountered these two words used together and went on a search to find what they mean when used together like this assuming that the sum is greater than the parts i found many incidences of the two words being used together but no definition of them one snippet in the search results said something like 'one suggestive fact is better than a few bushels of theory' which seems to be suggestive of the definition i am just wondering if the definition of suggestive fact could belong here and if there is a philosopher who could tackle its meaning
