Claim passes all 4 tests + previews 2-3 reasons = 4; 3 of 4 = 3; 2 = 2; <2 = 1
Hints
  1. Add a qualifier (usually/most/in many cases) if overreaching.
  2. Test: could someone reasonably disagree?
Misconceptions to watch
  • Refusal to use qualifiers (treating 'most' as weak; actually strengthens defense).
  • Picking 3 reasons that overlap or restate.
