Jul 7, 2023 at 18:34 comment added new account @NoahSchweber I meant due to the similarities between forcing and pre-Cohen work on BVMs, some people viewed Cohen's work as essentially present in the literature, so presumably BVMs did make it seem simpler
Jul 7, 2023 at 18:29 comment added Noah Schweber "No intent to trivialize Cohen's accomplishments, but (something like) Boolean-valued models were long considered before him" But Cohen, if memory serves, didn't talk at all about BVMs; those were introduced into forcing by Scott and Solovay, if I have my history right.
