The reply given to this objection goes as follows. “If I had made any
statement or assertion in favor of working things existing through some
nature of their own, well then it’s true that the entire way in which I’ve
disproved one thing and proven another here would be incorrect. But the
fact is that I have never made any such statement or assertion. As such, I
am free of this problem you’ve posed, that my disproving the one thing and
proving the other cannot be correct.”

And this is true because The Refutation of Argument itself says,
If I had made any such assertion,
Then that problem would apply to me.
But since I have made no such assertion,
It doesn’t apply to me at all.

And it is further true because the remaining sections of The Refutation of
Argument continue on to explain the remainder of the response here.
