520 3 |a In the target article, Trudgill assumes, based on the inspection of some Austronesian/Polynesian languages, that large community size favours medium-sized phonological inventories, whereas small community size favours either small phonological inventories or large inventories, and he then undertakes to explain these "facts”. A crosslinguistic empirical test, however, reveals conclusively that such assumptions are invalid and therefore Trudgill's explanation is fallacious in explaining a phenomenon that does not exist.
