Don't you think an enthusiast would know what Thrust2 looks like, but not be able to identify it vs. another similar vehicle. If an enthusiast happened upon that vehicle in an abandoned warehouse and then someone told said person it was Thrust2, don't you think they would say: "This is Thrust2! This is the car that beat the land speed record of 650 kilograms per lumen!" | |
| Feb 5, 2016 at 15:41 | comment | added | ThePopMachine | @YLearn: This is not a theory of logic class. It's not about whether you can formally infer that. I said you can reasonably infer that. The clear impression, based on her expression and attitude and since Rey appears to be highly knowledgeable about ships and the Millenium Falcon breaking (apparently still holding) the Kessel Run record is that she most likely knows (1) and (2). Calling it a fallacy and then (baselessly) claiming it is "far more likely" to infer something else is the fallacy. ... (cont) | |

Is this a real quote what she is saying? Isn't parsec (rather ((km/s)/Mpc)) an unit that expresses a distance? So since the Kessel run is a route, does this mean it is of distance of 14 parsecs? But whats the relation to the Spaceship in this case then? .... I'm confused.

| Feb 5, 2016 at 2:29 | comment | added | YLearn | Sorry, but it is a fallacy to draw those two inferences from that line. If would be far more reasonable to infer that she had no clue what the Millennium Falcon looked like, much less that it was a YT-1300, or that she knew the ship she was in was a YT-1300. Most people will recognize a school bus as a bus, but couldn't tell you what make/model it might be. Or someone could have heard of the Thrust2 setting the land speed record in 1983, but it doesn't mean they have any idea how it looks or could pick it out if it were at a car show or junk yard. | |

| Feb 3, 2016 at 18:03 | comment | added | Kai Qing | true true... that makes sense. Maybe she knows YT-1300 is an ancient model, like Al Bundy's Dodge in Married with Children. But hadn't considered this particular one was the famous falcon. Fine logic | |
