@kaysh I think you slipped up in terms of negating the sufficient condition in your first example, "/PR --> /MJ". In this particular example, 'peer review will not occur' is technically already '/PR' without using the translation rules. To negate this clause, it would really translate to 'PR'. This would then change your translation to PR --> MJ.
Writing out the cat example helped me understand the word fluff a lot better:
A cat cannot exist without being a vertebrate, for there is no cat that is not a mammal, and a dog cannot exist without being a mammal.
A. There can be no vertebrate without being a mammal.
-Vertebrate → Mammal
B. There can be no mammal without being a vertebrate.
-Mammal → Vertebrate
C. One cannot be a dog without being a vertebrate.
-Dog → Vertebrate
D. Existing as a mammal is possible only if one is a cat.
-Mammal → Cat
E. There can be no vertebrate without being a cat.
-Vertebrate → Cat
