Going through section 1.6 it seems that conclusions are always improved by multiple cogent premises. Would this increase the cogency and strength of an inductive argument? Or would each cogent premise stand on its own as its own argument?
If they are all considered parts of one argument, it looks like a cheap and easy way to increase the cogency of an argument, by decreasing the chances that all the premises will be found untrue.
