Cue: I find that I have multiple, independent reasons to support the same course of action. As with Policy Debates Should Not Appear One-Sided, there is every reason to expect multiple lines of evidence to converge on the truth, but there is no reason to expect multiple independent considerations to converge on the same course of action.
