Is when a support word? || Support/Contrast List

I was watching the video Determining Support/Contrast Text Completion Questions 1. Greg gave this problem as an example:

It was pointed in the sentence of the first blank the word “that” means support. What about the word “when”? Can that be a support word as well?

Its just that some words outweighs another and while you can say that when is a support you really need the line after that (which points toward a specific thing) to solve the blank . So, even if you neglect when in the blank , you can still guess the correct answer while focusing on the word that .

I am attaching a very cool support contrast list made by one of our member which can help you :
