Soooo maybe I’m wrong or maybe I’m crazy but I just figured out that with disagree and agree questions, the answer appeals to the conclusion of the first speaker. Is that a hack or am I reaching
Another possible spot for a disagreement: the factual accuracy of a premise stated. This is a bit non-LSAT'ish, but on disagree questions, if one person states as fact that a certain proposition is true in the world, a possible disagreement can occur when the other person says: no, that is not the case.
PT 66-4-23 about shrimp farming is an example that comes to mind.
I believe this is a reach in my experience. The actual disagreement can occur in any number of spots:
1.Flat out disagreement about the conclusion
2. Disagreement about whether or not the evidence provide is sufficient for the conclusion
3.Disagreement about an assumption in the argument

I will say that on PT84 there were a lot more agree with a bit of an inference than disagree questions.
Thanks everyone. I knew it was too good to be true.
