I thought that paragraph 4 was presenting the solutions to the issue as the court ended up ruling in favour of Boyd? Meaning that it is the main point of the passage? #help #feedback
@nnkNewYork I think this could be a sub-conclusion of the Court's opinion, but not necessarily the passage's main point. The passage as a whole is more focused on the problems arising from inconsistent definitions of 'traditional,' rather than just addressing the issues with that particular definition of 'traditional.'

@Isabella! I agree. I understood it as an example of how a previous misinterpretation was rectified with the courts new understanding.
Would it also be acceptable to isolate the sentence beginning with "it defies common sense" as Main Point-y? Felt very opinionated to me

@nnkNewYork agreed... felt very much like the authors opinon...
I like this passage. It makes intuitive sense to me, which is definitely not a given, lol.
