Illustrative Language
Hello,
My understanding is that two of the most important papers (if not THE most important) are COPFLR and Odomirok (ch. 16-17). For COPFLR, I'm writing my own note cards from the source paper as well as using the BattleCards. I've counted around 70 "Illustrative Language" examples in the COPFLR text. Are these, in your opinion, all worth copying onto flash-cards and memorizing?
Thank you.

No, you have to be more selective in what you memorize regarding illustrative language. Trying to memorize 70 different paragraphs is far too much. Take a look at the Battle Table for COPLFR here:
Then use control-f and search for the word "language". That will show you all the old exam problems that asked about illustrative language. First, make sure you memorize what you need to do those problems. Then you can look at illustrative language that is closely related to those that appeared on the exam. That's your best for learning what you need to know.
In general, you need to know the language for the different types of opinion and language for RMAD as that's what is most likely to show up on the exam. If you know that, you should be in good shape.
