Yes, it's obvious. Bruno, if only everything you said were so obvious!

Does everyone agree with the following proposition:
For all number x, if x is bigger than 2 then x is bigger than 1.
(by "bigger" I mean strictly bigger: 17 is strictly bigger than 16, but not
strictly bigger than 17).
It would help me to explain some point to non logicians if you tell me in
case you believe the proposition above is false.
I can put it in another way, like:
Whatever the number someone can choose, if that number is bigger
than
2 then it will be bigger than 1.
Is it obvious?
Thanks,
Bruno
