Leibniz's move from conceptual containment to the existence of an actual sufficient reason conflates logical relations between concepts with real causal-explanatory relations in the world.

Causal-explanatory relations(How things actually make each other happen in reality, not just in theory): The real connections in the actual world where one thing causes or produces another, or explains why something really happens.
Conflates(in argumentation and logic): Treats two different things as if they're the same thing, or mixes them up in a way that causes confusion.
Leibniz: Leibniz is a German philosopher and mathematician from the 1600s-1700s who developed calculus (a powerful math tool for measuring change and areas) independently around the same time as Isaac Newton. He's famous for creating much of the notation we still use in mathematics today and for arguing that everything in the universe follows logical principles. His ideas profoundly influenced modern science, mathematics, and philosophy, making him one of history's most important thinkers.
conceptual containment(as used in epistemology and logic): The idea that one concept includes another within its definition—like 'bachelor' conceptually contains 'unmarried' because that's built into what the word means.
