Overlapping Quantifiers & Conditionals
When there are a lot of quantifiers and conditions, is it safe to always only map out the overlapping ones? @Emil-Kunkin responded to the question posed by @kens and showed that by only mapping the overlapping conditionals/quantifiers, he was able to get the correct answer. Is this always the case? Also, can I get a little bit more clarification on why Answer Choice B is incorrect?

So you might be unsurprised to hear that my general answer here is that it depends. More accurately it depends on how well you understand the argument or facts- if you have a solid understanding of the statements you might not want to even bother writing anything out.
That said, for a must be true like this will a lot of statements that seem frankly a bit disjointed, I might want to err on the side of actually writing more if you think that would help you since the right answer could be supported by any of the statements.
I will say, when it appears disjointed, you should still make a good effort to see how they fit together, because I think that's crucial here. We know that her oils are all original and that she produced no such works until late in her career. This means she did not produce any oil paintings until late in her career.
B is wrong because we don't know what percent of her late career paintings were oil. It's possible that 70 percent were abstract. And only 20 were oil. Just becuase all her oils were late career it does not mean that all her late career were oil.
