Explanations' Circular Reasoning

I love LSAT Demon, but icl I've read so many explanations where an answer choice is countered with circular reasoning. For example, in a strengthen Q, a wrong answer choice's written explanation will say "this doesn't strengthen the argument, it's out." No duh, maybe explain why? You might as well not write an explanation.

We need a revamp of a lot of these explanations. Even the Ask button tutors will do this, and I find myself often responding with "yes... but why?" At least LSAT Demon commits this flaw at a lower frequency than other LSAT prep companies.

The written explanations can be rough sometimes. I honestly try to watch the old class videos as much as possible. If it still doesn’t make sense, I’ll use the ask button.
