You can call it whatever you'd like. Its the same exact thing. One can not say of something that it is and is not in the same sense at the same time.
Yeah I think you're right there. McDowell has 11 mentioned on his site, so there are 11 Metaphysical Principles.
And John Locke...wow, he claims that they're established from induction....I have to say he's good for a laugh! Thats also David Hume's Philosophy, which is debunked by McDowell in his Epistemological overview of his book TNETDAV (the ONLY part of this book I recommend, unless you are brand new to studying Apologetics). Locke's Major Problem was providing a Red Herring here. He claimed that since it takes experience for a child to learn 2+2=4 and that we must use symbols in order to derive this claim to be true, that its established through Induction. The problem with that is that this is how we learn...not how we know, meaning its Psychological and not Epistemological.
I don't go with Wikipedia on a whole lot here, but they do cover the Principle of Sufficient Reasoning, the Law of Indiscernibles, the Law of Excluded Middle (which is still valid, since Intuitionistic/Quinean Logic has been refuted), the Principle of Bivalency....good stuff here. I might use this as a reference guide for other things. I'm a big time Metaphysical buff.
