I agree with all the above, but especially this: "the biggest argumentative fallacy of all, one which I've never seen discussed, but would trash thousands of pages of denunciations of 'logical fallacies' if anyone did, is mistaking your opponents' suggestive probabilities or triage to ignore the absurd as attempts at logical proofs".
There really ought to be a snappy name for this - care to propose one?
