<p>Perdurantism has been considered a theory revisionary of common-sense. In particular, it revises some common-sensical truth-value attributions to ordinary sentences. Facing this situation, perdurantists that are willing to save the appearances adopt some kind of reconciliatory strategy. In this article, we examine one specific puzzle that detects a contrast in the truth-value attributions between perdurantism and common-sense, the Puzzle from Uniqueness, and we investigate whether the reconciliatory strategies based on the method of paraphrase succeed to solve it. First, we argue that the classical solutions available in the literature, the quantifiers-restriction strategy and the sortal-restriction strategy, fail. Second, we formulate a new solution to the Puzzle from Uniqueness that, in turn, relies on a novel account of the expression “being apt to”.</p>
