What the difference between the following pairs? I seem to get them mixed up when doing the flashcards:
Paradox vs. Errors in Reasoning
Parallel Reasoning vs. Illustration

Paradox questions present us with a set of facts that includes something that seems weird, and asks us to resolve the weird seeming thing.
Error in reasoning questions ask us to understand why an argument is flawed.
PR questions present us with an argument and then ask us to find an argument with the same structure. Illustration questions ask is to find a similar scenario.
These seem similar in the abstract, but once you start reading full LR questions thet become easier to spot.
