SR.  Commentary Note 26

Peirce List,

One of the fonder illusions of nominal thinking is that there is
an absolute distinction between generals and individuals, beyond
any that are relative to the conventions of a particular context.
On the contrary, the relativity of this distinction to a context
of interpretation, in other words, to a particular sign relation,
means that 3-adic relations are the minimal context in which one
can talk about qualities and reactions.
