Answered by GPT-4o mini
Yes, I'm confident that option C, "reasoning that is well-founded," is the correct answer to the question about what defines valid reasoning. Valid reasoning is typically based on solid evidence and logical principles, rather than merely being persuasive (A), emotionally charged (B), or based on prior usage (D).
