argumentum a/e contrario edit

Why is this Latin phrase argumentum e contrario in German and some other languages? --Espoo (talk) 20:04, 25 April 2016 (UTC)Reply

"as such" edit

From the article: § 123 of the X-Law says that green cars need to have blue tires. As such, red cars don't have to have blue tires.

I don't think "as such" is the correct expression here and in the other two cases where "as such" is used. What's intended here, I think, is "thus" or "therefore." Here's the definition of "as such" from Merriam-Webster Online:

— as such: intrinsically considered : (example: in itself as such the gift was worth little)

Expressio unius edit

Is there any difference between this and the maxim of expressio unius est exclusio alterius? They seem to me to cover the same fieldDeonyi (talk) 11:19, 30 June 2019 (UTC)Reply
