This has no refs and a google search comes up with nothing. It doesn't appear to be a proper fallacy, just a type of ad hominem with a shiny name that someone made up. Insulam Simia (talk/contribs) 20:33, 15 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]

- Delete. This seems to be the creator's own philosophy; it appears that the term is an informal fallacy in itself. Erpert Who is this guy? | Wanna talk about it? 05:22, 22 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete. I did a search for this term appearing in textbooks and other discussions of topics in logic; however, it seems to appear incidentally, not as a formal fallacy itself (see [1], [2], [3], [4]). As it seems unlikely to be a formalized term, it can have no significant coverage. I, Jethrobot drop me a line (note: not a bot!) 06:32, 22 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]
