I agree with the question from 10/14/18. The passage does not say it is not possible to make the plastic, it says "no applications have been found for grades of plastic that are lower than the currently lowest commercial grade." Having no applications for a product is a completely different concept than not being able to create a product. The passage indicates from that, that it is not impossible to make plastic lower in grade then the currently lowest commercial grade. It says there are no applications for it, which indicates it's been made...questions like these fry me, because the use of language is not correct. I hope to God there aren't questions worded like this on the LSAT I take...unreal.

Hi @Stacie-Seeley,
I completely agree with you that LSAT English and normal conversational English are two different beasts. No applications have been found may mean something different in real life than products cannot presently be made, but I find it helpful to try to think of each question as an entirely closed universe. That is, if there isn’t a single application that has been found, how could you presently make a product?
The good news is is that the stilted and often awkward language of the LSAT is entirely learnable, even if brain-frying at the beginning. It is just a matter of putting the hours in and getting used to it.
I wish I could offer a more satisfying answer, but we are here to help you conquer this test!
