Big Book Test 25 Section 2


what is the evidence for “notoriously”

There isn’t really evidence, did you pick A here?

Yes I did

A looks very plausible, the issue is saying “deceptively difficult”.

This does NOT mean “it’s difficult and it tricks people”, it actually means “it appears difficult but it isn’t”. This doesn’t actually end up creating the contrast with “simple to state”.

Hmm… interesting! Thank you @ganesh
