I would strike this question out on 3 pitches. Kick up coffeehouses and restaurants into the domain of public places. it feels like its drowning. /C → /WD, contra WD → C of course answer choices A and E chase it. Ladybird sucked [redacted] yourself. And Bang C → SI, therefore WD → C → SI, answer choice D is correct. Youre out. You were was always out. Youve been out since the day you were born

I ruled out A early on because it cast a pretty wide net. It says that storytellers "borrowed" ideas from each other. When I looked at the prompt again, I read it as implying that the stories are similar despite being widely separated temporally -- it says by "epochs". How could ideas have been explicitly "borrowed" if there's such a vast time difference? You could probably argue that the borrowing of ideas is implicit over time, with cultures and peoples moving around and transferring stories and mixing them with others, but I read that as a pretty wide assumption.

For me C was better since it got at the heart of the prompt. The same ideas keep coming up over and over again? Well, maybe these cultures, despite their distinctions, wanted to communicate similar ideas. That's a far shorter logical leap to make compared to what A said.

No student is chosen for Gryffindor unless they exhibit bravery. Therefore, if a student exhibits bravery, they will be sorted to Gryffindor.

"Unless" is a group 3 (negate, sufficient) indicator, so:

G → B (since G (student chosen for Gryffindor) is negated by the "no")

This says that if the student was chosen for Gryffindor, then they exhibit bravery.

The argument concludes that therefore, since G →B, then B → G must also be true.

But that statement says something different -- it says that "if they exhibit bravery, then the student was chosen for Gryffindor". This is a different argument, because it presumes that exhibiting bravery (B) is a sufficient rather than necessary condition. There could be students that exhibit bravery, but were sorted into Ravenclaw or something. Exhibiting bravery is merely sufficient for being in Gryffindor -- being brave does not guarantee being in Gryffindor.

We can take the statement “No grad level philosophy courses are available to undergrads" is a group 4 conditional, so we can apply the translation rules. You'd negate one of the statements and place them in the necessary slot, so it would look like this:

G → /U, or (contrapositive) U → /G

I had that /DP → /PP. I got that from taking this first:

/DP and RP → /PP (where RP = relocated pandas)

and then kicking up that we are only talking about the relocated pandas:

Domain: relocated pandas

/DP → /PP

In other words, if we don't drive out the poachers, then the (relocated) pandas won't prosper. If we take the contrapositive:

PP → DP; if the pandas prosper, then we've driven out the poachers.

Taking the contra of yours says

/PP → /DP; that if the pandas haven't prospered, then we haven't driven out the poachers. I think that's overbroad since there could be other reasons that the pandas haven't prospered.

For the last bit, where the events in the necessary condition branch off, what does that imply about the temporality of the condition? Like, when M is adopted, that guarantees that N and O will be adopted. The branching path seems to say that when M is adopted, either N or O is adopted. Going down one path would seem to preclude the other. Rather the explanation here seems to say that both of those events can happen simultaneously. Is that true?

This was the error that he was warning us about earlier, right? The issue is that users of the Force is a superset of being a Jedi. So it is true that Luke, who is a member of the set of Jedis is therefore the member of the set of users of the Force. However, if someone else (say a generic Person A) is a user of the Force, this does not automatically mean they are a Jedi -- that the set of users of the Force is a superset of Jedis means that there are users of the Force who are not Jedis, and Person A could be a member of that group. To confuse the two would be making the error of confusing a necessary condition to be a sufficient one.
