I will take your lack of meltdown as a sign it's starting to sink in. Let me see if I can smarten you up lol
By renouncing the value of avoiding common fallacies you announce the authority of reason, science, and knowledge and would fit better in a church. It's the main thing that's wrong with cannabis forums in general and why there is so much being done that goes against basic botany, and the difference between the knowledge of a low tech farmer and high tech cannabis growers is so large.
Continue on that path and you will make yourself obsolete. Submit to the authority of reason, learn how to recognize your own fallacies cause we all make them (the reason I see yours...) or join a cult...

Logic (also
dialectic) is the "mechanics" of
thought and of
analysis;
the process of identifying fallacious arguments and statements, and so systematically removing contradictions, thereby producing factual knowledge that can be trusted.
"the
dialectical method, is a
discourse between two or more people holding different
points of view about a subject but wishing to establish the
truththrough reasoned arguments. " On the contrary,
debating is about trying to convince the opponent or listeners/readers of
your point of view, what you are doing.
Example fallacy: "we don't know the ideal spectrum for cannabis yet" is a red herring. It's true, but doesn't refute anything relevant. Not knowing the ideal npk does not mean you use NPK 1-1-1 either... What you can know, with a high level of certainty, is that some spectrums are less ideal than others.
Another red herring: "hps has a very low cri". That means you can grow quantity and quality with hps, it does in no way refute the 90cri led is better than the 80cri led.
Fallacies can be used as a tool for the sake of good discussions to. They are not always negative or illminded as typical for some folks here. See my led corn thread for one big red herring... And no, not every valid argument of which you don't understand the relevance or impact is a red herring. Yes, I know how predictable you are and this is again like throwing pearls before swines.
