Thanks! Also https://rationalwiki.org/wiki/Ad_hoc https://rationalwiki.org/wiki/Ad_hoc Aside: I wish fallacies had more intuitive names that tied in to common knowledge. It would help their use spread if they were easier to explain, to remember and didn't have names that could be seen as pretentious e.g. the Latin ones. "Straw man" is particularly bad for example - it sounds ridiculous and pretentious explaining where the name comes from to someone who doesn't know what logical fallacies are. "Misrepresentation" or something like that might be better. I'd love it if we got to the stage where journalists were pointing out logical fallacies by name in interviews for example.
