It is not the case that Argument 2's appeal to uniqueness addresses soundness of the certificate but is silent on the length constraint that defines membership in coNP.

Set your confidence on the premises below to see your aggregate.
Reasons For
1 perspective
Reason for
?
1.
Uniqueness of certificates is inherently connected to length bounds through their minimal representation and expressibility.
?
How convincing is this?
Think about whether this reason is strong or weak
2.
An argument addressing soundness implicitly constrains certificate space, thereby addressing length properties indirectly.
?
How convincing is this?
Think about whether this reason is strong or weak
3.
The distinction between addressing soundness versus length constraints may be artificial rather than representing separate logical gaps.
?
How convincing is this?
Think about whether this reason is strong or weak
Reasons Against
1 perspective
Reason against
?
1.
CoNP membership fundamentally requires polynomial-length certificates verifiable in polynomial time, not just logical soundness.
?
How convincing is this?
Think about whether this reason is strong or weak
2.
An argument can be logically valid yet fail to establish coNP membership if it ignores polynomial bound constraints entirely.
?
How convincing is this?
Think about whether this reason is strong or weak
3.
Distinguishing soundness from membership criteria is necessary for rigorous complexity-theoretic analysis.
?
How convincing is this?
Think about whether this reason is strong or weak
