@PedramLovesLSATPrep Main point questions is targeting the conclusion or main point of an argument, while I see MoR to be analysis of the averall argument structure containing both the conclusion and and how it reaches that with its corresponding premises. To which sometimes we may use peacemeal analysis to simplify.
In MP, we look for the conclusion while MoR, we will analyze structures while considering which reasoning methods the author employs and find that translated in the abstract language of the ACs.
