One can be at home and be in the backyard, that is, not in one's house at all. ███ ███ ████ ██ ██ █████ █████ ███ ███ ██ █████ ██ ███ ████ ███ █████ ███ █████ ██ ███ ██ ███████ ███ ████████ ██ █████ █████ ██ ████ ██ ███ ████████ ███ █████ █████ ██ █████ ███ ██████
The author claims that “one’s being at home is not required for one’s being in one’s own house.” To back up this claim, we are offered an example: if you visit a house that you own but rent to someone else, you can be in your house but not at home (because it’s someone else’s home).
The claim that one can be at home without being at one’s house doesn’t actually form part of the argument. Instead, it’s a piece of context that introduces the substance of the argument. Because the conclusion only focuses on being in one’s house without being at home, being at home without being at one’s house is ultimately irrelevant to the conclusion.
