## Overview
Science advances by argument: claims supported by evidence, tested
against alternatives, and revised under criticism. This skill covers
structuring arguments (claim hierarchies, warrants, qualifiers),
matching evidence strength to claim strength, steelmanning objections,
and the logical fallacies that most often corrupt scientific reasoning.
## When to use
- Structuring a paper's argument: main claim, sub-claims, evidence chain
- Preparing for peer review: anticipating and preempting objections
- Evaluating competing hypotheses or interpretations fairly
- Writing discussion sections that persuade rather than assert
