Avast me hearty!
It doesn't work like that though does it.
What you're describing is a two input AND gate and the output will be
true if both inputs are true.
If it is true that X > Y
and
If it is true that Y > Z
then
It is true that X > Z
else
False
Otherwise your Conclusion is not based on the Premisseseseses!
10 may be greater than 8 but this is not a conclusion based on the premisses

P1) If [it is true that] Blackbeard is a pirate
And
P2) If [it is true that] All pirates are murderers
then
C1) Blackbeard ought to be a murderer
But as not all pirates are murderers P2 is not true so conclusion is false.
Arggggh, back to Logic 1 with ye, matey.
A valid argument with 1 true premise& 1 false premise, does not necessarily
have a false conclusion:
i) 10> 5
ii) 5> 8
iii) :. 10> 8
