Slightly more broadly than in Baier (1990), Miller (2017; 2020; 2021), and Roberts and West (2020), I understand "truthfulness" here as a positive orientation both toward telling the truth and toward not misleading (rather than merely the former -Miller (2021), for instance, calls these two tendencies (when they amount to virtues) "truthfulness" and "forthrightness", respectively).This broader understanding of truthfulness nonetheless comes with a restriction on what I (for present purposes) will be discussing as honesty, which I explain below.
