Discussion
Statement: Should articles of only deserving authors be allowed to be published?
Arguments:
1. Yes. It will save a lot of paper which is in short supply.
2. No. It is not possible to draw a line between the deserving and the undeserving.
Answer: B
Correct answer: Only argument II is strong
An argument is strong when it bears directly on the question and carries real weight. II does: any such rule requires a line between deserving and undeserving authors, and if that line cannot be drawn the policy cannot be operated. I is weak because the paper saved is trivial beside the question of who may publish, and it addresses a side effect rather than the merits of the proposal.
