I argue that Amie Thomasson's recent theory of the methodology to be applied to find the truth-conditions for claims of existence faces serious objections. Her account is based on Devitt and Sterelny's solution to the qua problem for theories of reference fixing; however, such a solution cannot be also applied to analyze existential claims.
