I want to point out one more thing. Epistemological existents, once
created by mental processes, exist metaphysically. Take a truth like
"four is greater than two". The concepts of "four" and "two" and the
numerical concept of "greater" are concepts that are mind-dependent.
They cannot exists without minds to hold them.

But once the concepts of "four", "two" and "numerically greater"
exist, it is a metaphysical fact that the concept "four" has the
property "numerically greater" than "two".

So metaphysical facts can be mind-dependent. Similarly, once I
conceptualize "Sun", "Earth", and "physically larger", it is a
metaphysical fact that the Sun is larger than the Earth. This does not
make that fact mind-independent.
