This is pretty cool! I'm not sure how you'd make a business out of it, but I can definitely see myself using it to justify some decisions on my day to day stuff.
I'm also a sucker for serif fonts so points for that.

Yeah, I only just yesterday got it to the point where people can create their own arguments. I was just using it to check my own assumptions on why I have such a complicated "end-of-month finances" list of things to do. :) But I also like the idea of using it for political arguments or even fun stuff like mystery-solving.
Speaking of politics, I've always thought it would be fun to see the different assumptions made by two "sides". My expectation is that both sides gradually accumulate more and more extreme, and often more and more ridiculous, assumptions to distinguish their side from the other.
Eventually, everyone's downstream beliefs are resting on extreme assumptions that nobody actually believes! Which makes moderate well-reasoned arguments from "the other side" much more threatening than extreme positions that can be passed off as lunacy, naivete, or evil.
Yeah... so far, I have found that trying to fully justify a political conclusion has a way of moderating the conclusion. But it's still possible to arrive at very different well-reasoned conclusions just from different axiomatic personal values.
I wanted to add more value to this comment about monetisation - regardless if that's doable or not, it's an extremely cool project!!
What if you could sell the data for each argument? That might be valuable to LLM labs, because then you can essentially guarantee that every single argument you provide is human checked, and you could accumulate a large DB of those. Of course you'll never be able to capture every single argument possible, but it's rather a mechanism that would allow incremental improvement with time. But codifying logic and natural language is a very nice idea.
