Let's evaluate each statement for the use of a superlative.

  1. That is the strongest argument anyone can make. - True (uses "strongest," which is a superlative form of "strong").

  2. I would like to point out a flaw in that logic. - False (does not contain a superlative).

  3. There might be a better way to approach this problem. - False (uses "better," which is a comparative, not a superlative).

  4. That is the worst argument I’ve ever heard. - True (uses "worst," which is a superlative form of "bad").

So, the true/false responses would be:

  1. True
  2. False
  3. False
  4. True
