Can correct answer choices for necessary questions be perspective claims? I remember the lessons mentioning that they often aren't but I wanted to clarify!
Any insight is appreciated, thank you!

The trick I have employed for these questions is just to check two boxes: 1) Will this advance the argument (So is it sufficient, usually also just a litmus test), and 2) Does this necessarily need to be true in the argument?
So for example:
Dave went to the dollar store. Therefore, Dave bought something.
A) Dave has $100 - This is SA, but not NA because he doesn't need to have this to buy something there.
B) Dave has a pet iguana - This does not advance the argument and probably does not need to be true. The first filter is easier to see than the second usually.
C) Dave has $0.5 - This is necessary because he needs at least this amount of money to buy something at the $1 store
D) There is air - This is also necessary because he needs air to breathe, even though it is not directly related, it does advance the argument.
Usually I just eliminate the unrelated/unhelpful ones, and then when there are a few remaining in the harder questions, eliminate everything that does not NEED to be true for the question. This helped me get to 170+.
