“5. The Last Alternative:

There is a problem to which there appear to be only two possible solutions. Someone demonstrates that one of them does not work and concludes that the other must be the answer.”

I like all of your examples, save this one.

It seems to me that, especially in an election season, you are using this to suggest that both of our two main choices (the only ones that have more than a 0.00% chance of winning the election) are “wrong”.

And that might be true.

But it’s still relevant to decide which one is more wrong.

Now perhaps you put this out there not intending it to be read the way I did. But even if that is so, I suspect I am not the only one who will read it that way.
