Being snarky about the GP's spacing is not argumentatively useful.
Courts deciding whether or not you're allowed to say something is only marginally better than other government officials deciding whether or not you're allowed to say something.
Slippery slope is only a fallacy in the strict Boolean sense. It's a perfectly useful heuristic in Bayesian reasoning. In particular, it speaks to the effects of shifting the Overton Window.
