�How about knowledge of ethics, law, ecology, and science? Sure, but all that is tidy-fact stuff."
What does tidy-fact stuff here mean?
What kind of stuff can be called tidy-fact stuff?

Lucas,
I have absolutely no idea what this means, and English is my first language! If I HAD to guess, I'd say that maybe the term means that these areas of study tend to have "objective" answers for many of their questions, as opposed to some other fields which may have more "subjective" answers. But I'm not happy with that interpretation. You're not the only one who is confused here. |

Hello, Nef. Nice to meet you.
Well, I see. It seems like quite a tough one, as hard as philosophy.
Anyway, I have to thank you for your help. It's so kind of you.
