Does anybody have in general suggestions on except questions. I know you're basically finding the answer that does not match the question type, but for some reason these are a little harder. Is there any advice that could help for these in general. I hate except questions, I really do. lol

It's all literal. Weakens except can be an irrelevant choice, and this would be correct because doing nothing wouldn't weaken it. Don't overthink the question.
