If I understand Veritula correctly, we first start with an idea. We accept the idea as true until it has received a criticism. In which case, until the current criticism isn't resolved, the idea is tentatively seen as false and makes no sense to live in accordance to it. We don't submit bulk ideas or criticisms. Each idea and criticism, even if they are related must be their its own. Also, avoid duplicate ideas.

Each idea and criticism, even if they are related must be their its own.

The word ‘must’ is too strict here. As I explained in #1870, ideas should generally be submitted separately, but there are exceptions.
