Explanation

Logical evidence is the name given to the conclusion, product of a series of actions, facts, an investigation, and others. Logical evidence is characterized by being a result that can be proven several times and its result will always be the same. For example, mathematics can obtain logical evidence through operations such as addition, subtraction, multiplication, division, etc. Another example of logical evidence is with the facts, surely if you hit someone, most likely they will be angry with you, you can try it several times with different people and the result will be very close for all people. The logical evidence can also come from the experimentation of another, for example, if a professional chef tells me that when cooking I avoid using a high flame to prevent my food from burning, it is because he has enough experience to affirm it. On the other hand, Bait and Switch is a persuasion strategy that uses a striking initial premise (bait) to the listener to capture their attention and engage them, and later this premise changes drastically until the listener is led to a way of acting that would not do if it had initially been completely shown (switch). This form of reasoning is not related to logical evidence because it is not based on solid arguments, but rather is focused on a form of language persuasion. Therefore, the correct answer is D. Bait and Switch
