Ah, Franz! You seem to have picked up on something Richard intimated -- 
which is that the Santideva-type Madhyamaka is merely repackaged
Pudgalavada. Richard seems to have figured that out, but I don't think
Siderits himself has a clue.

For Pudgalavadins, the pudgala (person) is a praj~napti, a heuristic
reductionism, though indispensible for doing Buddhism.
