Main point (4)

Ross

I think it could be either:

crux

gist

<span class="explanation-format__ClueExplanation">'<span class="explanation-format__original">main point</span>' is the definition.<br/ ><span class="explanation-format__explanation">(I've seen this in another clue)</span><br/ ><br/ >This is all the clue.<br/ ></span>

(Other definitions for crux that I've seen before include "brain-teaser!" , "Core" , "Baffling problem" , "Decisive, baffling, point" , "Most important aspect" .)

I've seen this clue in The New York Times, The Times, The Star Tribune, the USA Today, the Newsday, the Penny Press and The Sunday Times.
