I think it would help discuss validity of an argument very efficiently. I often find myself having to parse premises out of prose in order to express what I disagree with and as surprising as it sounds sometimes it gets difficult because the author might like being wordy.

Cool. On Sequiturs each step in an argument is called a proposition; a proposition can be used in an argument as either a premise or a conclusion. Propositions are sort of the atomic element of content on Sequiturs, since they can be reused across arguments. Soon, propositions will have their own pages, so that users can efficiently explore all the arguments where the proposition is used, as well as vote on whether the proposition is true or false and discuss that.
