No reason in particular, one will be eventually replaced with another grammar point.

Hopefully soon as it’s quite confusing to only find half the resources in another lesson later.

Also I find this Youtube channel is really helpful so please consider adding more to Bunpro.

Hello! I just wanted to point out this grammar point is duplicated in the N3 lessons.

Hey,

I just realized that this grammar point is missing from the Tobira path, although it lists Tobira page 219 under ressources. It should be right before the last item (思うように) in Chapter 9.

おはようございます

I was studying this lesson (N3 lesson 3: 13/22 nowadays), and found that ‘何と言ってもなんといっても’ is a set expression with its own meaning: after all is said and done; no matter what people say; in the end.

Could it be included as a Fun Fact at the end of the lesson, as it seems a quite useful expression?

Thank you so much for your consideration.
