I noticed conclusions follow counter-premise indicators, such as the word, "But". Is this common with other counter-premise indicators?

Hi I speak,

It wouldn't make sense logically to follow a main conclusion with a counter-premise indicator like "but" or "however," so just like in everyday speech, they are going to be followed either by another premise or a conclusion.

Good catch!
