We should be careful with Littledale's reductio. Muller's methods obviously have no validity outside of the domain of mythology - his name certainly has little mythological import. However, Muller's methods may be perfectly sound within some domain, and that may be the domain he was working within.

I'm not taking sides on Muller's work, just expressing a meta-level concern.
