Namaste Sudhanshu Ji,
The quote from the tIka you have presented in your initial post
<< तुच्छं वृत्तिविषयः, व्यवह्रियमाणत्वात्, घटादिवत्।
तुच्छं न क्षणिकम्, अकारणत्वात्, ब्रह्मवत् >>
actually reads in full, in the tIka, as
<< ननूक्तशब्देनेव तुच्छं वृत्तिविषयः; व्यवह्रियमाणत्वात्,
तुच्छं न क्षणिकम्; अकारणत्वात्, इत्य्द्यनुमानेनापि तुच्छं ज्ञाप्यते,
तत्राह--*यद्वेति ।* *कश्चिद्धर्म इति* । ग्राह्य इति शेषः। >>.
I would understand from this that the tIka presents the anumAna stated
above as a possible pUrva paksha, and mentions that the same is refuted
in Advaita Siddhi itself by the further clarification on the previous
definition namely << शब्दाजन्यवृत्तिविषयत्वमेव दृश्यत्वम् >> by the
statement
<< सप्रकारकवृत्तिविषयत्वम् >>.
Regards
