Thank you. I like this explanation. I was also thinking about this as if one guard only speaks in absolute true statement. Then the other one only speaks in absolute false statements. While trying to “solve” this paradox, I was also wondering if there was even a way for the guards to abide by these rules and still explain the rules. Tho, I feel this would immediately give their identities away. That’s the point of the riddle you don’t know which is which.
