The Other is aimed at as phenomenon, never as noumenal reality

Evidence

We must understand that this being is no other than the transphenomenal being of phenomena and not a noumenal being which is hidden behind them. It is the being of this table, of this package of tobacco, of the lamp, more generally the being of the world which is implied by consciousness. It requires simply that the being of that which appears does not exist only in so far as it appears. The transphenomenal being of what exists for consciousness is itself in itself (lui-même en soi). — Jean-Paul Sartre, Being and Nothingness, 153 (#corroborates, via linked claim)
