Discussion
With which connective is an existential claim normally written?
Answer: C
Saying that some student is diligent is written as: there is an object which is a student and is diligent, since using implication would be satisfied by any object that is not a student at all. That is the second of the two classic translation errors. The pairing is not a convention but a consequence of what the quantifiers mean, and working through why the wrong connective gives an unintended reading is what fixes it in mind. Naming the cost of a choice alongside its benefit is what turns a fact into a design decision.
