formal fallacies also kind of aren't fully real either. at least within the confines of discourse, it's not like formal/deductive logic is hugely applicable to rhetoric anyway imo.
i think just drawing upon fallacies in general is a bit pointless, most debate is centred around premise acceptability and not argument structure.
