Presumably he also excludes, you know,
all other people on planet earth or existing in the universe or the bodies of every person who ever lived, so there is also the implicit "on Rokkenjima" which is generally never appended to
any red text. But it obviously applies... or does it? It can be universalized in part because it's confined to the game board, which is allegedly the island and the island alone. But Battler's red does not universalize that way...
