Problem-analysis

The author states which one ██ ███ █████████ █████ ████████ ████████ ████ ██ █████ ████████████

Despite appearances, computer ████████ █████ ███ █████████ ██████████ ████ ████████████ █████ ██ █████████

Unstated and anti-supported. The author presents CG displays as having significant advantages over verbal evidence.

Most critics of ██████████████████ ████████ █████ ███ ███████ ████ ████████ ██ █████ ████████████

Unstated. There’s no discussion of banning evidence. The author just states in P2 that some critics are “urging caution.”

Judges should forewarn ██████ ██ ███ ███████████ ██████ ██████ ██ ██████████████████ █████████

Stated in P3.
