Looks great. I think everyone should have an understanding of how arguments can be fallacious. But one thing I noticed - going down the fallacy rabbit hole - is that you can find fallacies in almost any written opinion... I think this is because fallacies are somewhat subjective and some fallacies can even oppose each other, so there's no way to avoid them... But that's just my (fallacy-riddled) opinion

My memory is hazy but I remember reading or hearing somebody say that "at the end of the day, everything is just an appeal to authority."

Exactly why the fallacy fallacy[0] exists. Just because an argument has a fallacy does not make its conclusion false. 0: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Argument_from_fallacy https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Argument_from_fallacy
