But

this
our

language game can, I think, show us a reason why one

might wish
may want

to make ˇsay that the demonstrative pronoun ˇis a name: for the demonstrative “this” can never be without a meaning bearer. One might say, : “So long as there is a this, then the word [‘|‘]this’ has meaning, no matter whether this is simple o[f|r] complex.” – But

this
in fact that

does not make it a name. On the contrary, – for we don't use a name by making isn't used with a deomnstrative gesture, but only explained it by it.
