Question

The poet T.S. Eliot famously wrote that "April is the cruelest month," which may very well be true. In many places, spring is indeed a bare, wet, muddy, and still quite cold time of year. September, on the other hand, is the finest month -a proposition that is quite beyond dispute. In September, the summer sun has finally lost its fury. As the days grow shorter, the glow of twilight lingers for hours, imbuing the evenings with an aura of mystery and possibility. Children, having exhausted finally the possibilities for summer adventures, becoming weary even of quarreling, eagerly anticipate the prospect of a new school year. One's mind turns toward bringing in the garden's crops and-inevitably-to autumn's chores and the distant rumors of winter.
What is the major flaw with this argument?
1 The literary writing style, with an emphasis on language, is not well
suited to an argument and obscures the author's point.
2 The author's obvious bias toward summer months prevents a fair
consideration of the merits of other months of the year.
3 The claim that September is the finest month is ultimately just the author's opinion, rather than something that can be debated.
