Abstract

We exploit the results of Bamonti&Gomes (2024) concerning the dynamical (un)coupling of reference frames to gravity to analyse the role of reference frames in the Hole Argument. We introduce a new possible threat to determinism, which we call Arbitrariness Problem (ARB), resulting from the inherent freedom in selecting a reference frame.
