Ok so I'm trying to understand how to make the jump from workers to freelance writers and how this would result in a "some" statement. if I were to diagram this to get this, would it look like:
workers -m-> /judged for quality
workers <-s-> freelance writers -> work evaluated
workers <-s-> freelance writers -> high quality work
therefore, worker's work evaluated <-s-> high quality work ?
Can someone please tell me if I'm thinking this through correctly? Basically, what i understood here is:
Terry's argument:
action good (AG) -> favorable consequences (FC) <-s-> considered bad (CB)
conclusion: AG <-s-> CB
Pat's argument:
CB -> /FC <-s-> AG
conclusion: CB <-s-> AG (same as terry's)
So my understanding of why this is wrong is because you can't make valid inferences from a chain that starts with "all" and ends in "some" -- but I guess I'm having trouble with understanding how this means that the sufficient and necessary are switched?
Is it because, in a situation of:
"A -> B <-s-> C,
therefore A <-s-> C"
you are taking A, which is in the sufficient side of the "must" statement, and forcing it to be necessary in a "some" statement because both sides of a some statement are necessary?
Please let me know if my reasoning here is sound as I'm having trouble making sense of it!
