hi,
you mentioned that example 2 is a flawed argument. did you say that because of the song you played? if not, can you explain in simpler terms why its flawed.

I was also confused about this when I first took the course! Yes, the argument is flawed because of the song played: Johnny Cash's "A Boy Named Sue."
This song negates the premise that anyone named Sue is a girl because it is about someone named Sue that is a boy. As the premise is flawed, we cannot logically draw the conclusion that X is a girl based on the premise that X is named Sue.
Hope this is helpful! Let us know if you have any further questions.
