conversations bydesign learners in mechanical engineering, industrial engineering, choreography and a number ofother disciplines. “The electrical components aren’t gonna be actually on the assembly be- cause we don’t want any component or batteries being near an explosion because that could cause it to be dangerous. So we’re running off the ac- tual mechanism so no electrical components will be actually on it. [...] it’s gonna be a wire running off of it...”In this case, the provisoed assertion can be summarized as follows.P : Electrical components or batteries will be in danger of loss.Q: Explosion occurs.Therefore, the argument to justify the decision of housing the electronic parts off the main
