Does that mean
1. ... his account of it was more qualified AND better grounded in empiricism
2...... his account of it was more qualified, in other words, better grounded in empiricism
3..... his account of it was more qualified, BECAUSE it was better grounded in empiricism
4.... his account of it was more qualified, or to be more precise, was better grounded in empiricism
?
Many thanks.
