Subjunctives 1: müssten

J has long since mastered möchten, sollten, and könnten, roughly in that order. Yesterday while discussing how to go about a project he is planning, he formulated several sentences using the subjunctive I of müssen:

"Man müsste es [auf diese Weise machen]"; "Dann müsste man [dies und das machen]." 

I've been consciously using these sorts of formulations myself for a few months now.
