A theorem obtained by van Benthem for preservation of formulas under Chu transforms between Chu spaces is strengthened and derived from a general many-sorted interpolation theorem. The latter has been established both by proof-theoretic and model-theoretic methods; there is some discussion as to how these methods compare and what languages they apply to. In the conclusion, several further questions are raised.
