How do we state it is true if it is an assumption? Obviously we all know tigers are mammals but in this argument we are pretending we don't and it is an assumption, right? Is it stronger because it is just less based on opinion like the second one?

Oh is it because they are saying directly = directional = more error = more temperature? I guess I can try and learn to read it like that, but it still feels like a leap personally

Can you explain where you got hotter vs lower temp from in the question? I'm not saying you're wrong because you are obviously right! I just got tripped up on this question because it just says that temp affects it, not that it's increasing temp. I'm trying to find out where I'm missing it

I 100% agree! How do we know the direction is not downward (colder)? All I gathered from that is that temperature plays a role. Since we do not know that it has to do with increasing temperature, how can we know B is correct?
