Why can no valid inference be drawn in this question? Doesn't the "at least one" clock provision mean "some", which entails reversibility?

Hi forumuser,

If you mean that

..... clock :some: uses electricity

allows the inference

..... uses electricity :some: clock

Then that's true, but it's not an additive inference, it's an inherent inference. And these answer keys are looking for you to "draw as many additive inferences as possible."
