11. You've done exactly what I was talking about.

You've expanded #8 into a valid argument, and that valid argument no longer relies on #8.

Yes, exactly - gay marriage doesn't harm anyone else, murder does.

*That's*, in essence, why gay marriage should be legal and murder shouldn't. Ad note that at no point in the chain of
reasoning does it refer to #8.

Consider the line of argument "The sky is blue, potatoes grow underground and therefore we should refrain from eating babies".
