"Hotels are both expensive and depressing.Some hotels are shabby.Therefore, some expensive things are shabby." Quantifier logic is superior to syllogistic logic in rendering arguments such as this one into symbolic form.Why?
A) Quantifier logic allows us to take arguments at face value; it is a lot of unnecessary trouble to rearrange them into syllogisms and a lot easier to have a logic that is a better match for ordinary language.
B) Syllogistic logic fell in after the discovery of the existential fallacy.The new logic allows us to remove ourselves from the problem using quantifiers.
C) Syllogistic logic was burdened with meaningless and redundant structure such as the meticulous stacking of major and minor premises into the correct order.
D) Quantifier logic allows us to "bundle" concepts with parentheses instead of "hiding" them in the subject or predicate terms, where they become unavailable for use in the proof.
