I'm a bit confused by the context can make some excludes all... If we think reading is a challenge therefore all can be excluded, for a class of 20, we should also reasonably exclude those numbers that are close enough to all like 18 or 19, but I don't think we should do that since we are not drawing the line.
Okay I get how some but not all, and only indicate that "all" is being excluded. I'm still a little stuck on how the previous lesson shows that some can include all.
Is the quantifier "some" being used in the same way as "sum" where its just adding up since it is ambiguous?
Its weird because ive seen definitions that some implicitly means "not all", but I guess for the LSAT, some can mean all. I think that's very funny

Idk how some could ever mean all. I have never heard some be used in a way to describe a whole group.

Also can we get an example of this with context?
The title of this lesson literally contradicts the previous lesson. Would make more sense to say Exception or Implicit Exclusion
Can someone further clarify why "only some" would indicate some but not all?
