Think of it in the abstract, Kevin - the author is saying "X does not support Y, because you also have to think about Z." The author is trying to prove the first part, that X does not support Y. His premise, supporting that conclusion, is that you also have to take Z into account.

Sometimes it can help to break an argument into abstract bits and pieces to see how they all fit together!
