Great! Looks like there's a lot of interest and I'm sure there will be others. Does anyone want to volunteer to be Discord leader? I am brand new to that platform. I can do the organizing from there, just don't know how to get us set up. Thanks in advance!

I chose A and the comments weren't helping me understand why I was wrong - especially in short order. Here's what helped me in the end: Our answer has to bolster the conclusion. The conclusion is luckily easier to identify: "We are not obliged to take their claim seriously [unless a condition]." So, even before I untangle the premises I know I can eliminate answers that don't directly address our conclusion, aka our obligation to take their claim seriously. Knocks out A, D, and E. Comparing B and C, I think you can get there quickly in 2 ways: 1) because you know we're not interested in what "most people" think (they could all be wrong anyway), and/or 2) "NO claims" is more definitive than "MOST people" so even if they were both right, we could go with the stronger one.

#help is this train of thought correct and applicable to other PSA questions, or did I get lucky and should not have dismissed other details so quickly?

I was turned off by E because I thought it was too strong to suggest that one building being successful = all civic buildings' purpose. What if other qualities not mentioned here were also required? What if what was true for the one building was not true for the whole?

In any case, I still should have gotten this correct because the conclusion is about "the purpose of a civic building" and no other AC touched on that. Would you agree with that? (Instead I ran out of time looking for F, an AC that included both city center and purpose.)
