11 pages in this book.

Page	What it is for
General rule with an exception	I want to lift a general rule by carrying the bound person into the exception itself.
Exception from an exception	I want to restore the general conclusion when there is an exception from a prohibition.
An exception establishes negation	I want an explicit refusal, not merely the removal of positive support.
A defeater blocks every ground of the head	I want to keep an independent ground by shielding it from a general defeater.
Special rule over general	I want to pin the superiority of a special rule explicitly.
Later-enacted rule	I want to apply an explicitly chosen policy that compares dates of enactment.
Source hierarchy	I want to compare source rank while keeping the rules defeasible.
Priority in a special territory	I want to turn priority on only when a territorial condition is established.
Conflict without a winner	I want to keep both opposite supports when there is no priority.
Strict consequence and a defeasible rule	I want to separate a strict definition from a rule with an exception.
Different amounts are not opposites	I want to replace a default amount by lifting its ground.
