Yes, and Aristotles position is unsound. It might be valid, but its not sound. Aristotle was a big fan of deductive logic and he would have said inferences are never a good idea.
An example of what A would argue is such:
Sex's final cause is reproduction
Therefore sex ought to only be used for reproduction
Empirically, there is nothing about sex that says it ought to be used for reproduction.
Clearly sex can be more than just reproductive. He would have said (and did, I believe) sex for pleasure was immoral
