#help, what does the part that says argument direction mean? where it says up or down, depending on the type of question

wow bless u

@andresbayez639 baez, how about diplomacy

I am struggling with the same thing so looking forward to hearing other answers but what's helping me right now is reading the stimulus as many times as needed, carefully and repeating the argument (and the why's of it) in my mind so that I understand it completely. After that prephrasing the answer leads me to finding the right one much more quickly.
