Question

Which type of faulty logic does this sentence contain?
Although the cheeseburger is the most sought-after item on our menu, it is really difficult to manage the crowd in the drive-up lane because of the high demand; so, the cheeseburger should be taken off the menu.

distraction

ad hominem

false analogy

either-or fallacy

Answer 1

Well it is certainly not distraction. This argument is pretty relevant.

Answer 2

It's a false analogy, either-or fallacy could be true but this isnt a serious issue and ad hominems generally stick to talking about people and never products of some sort. And yeah distraction is irrelevant.

Answer 3

Honestly, I believe it's an either-or fallacy. There are other options than to take the cheeseburger off of the menu.

Answer 4

Which is why it can't be either-or fallacy, cause there are other options than to just take it off the menu. Either-or fallacy is almost like giving an ultimatum like "If you dont take the burger off the menu or go bankrupt"

Answer 5

"Take the burger of the menu or go bankrupt"*****

Answer 6

False analogies, you could say, contradict themselves I guess? But essentially just leave a statement open to argument

Answer 7

I don't understand what you mean. Didn't you list a reason why it IS an either-or-fallacy?

Answer 8

I mean an either-or/fallacy is supposed to be false because in reality, there are other options, but the person stating the argument refuses to acknowledge them.

Answer 9

No thats a reason why its NOT either-or fallacy cause an either-or fallacy is essentially just giving someone an ultimatum to a easily fixable solution.

Answer 10

You can argue false analogies

Answer 11

I still don't understand how it's not an either-or/fallacy, but just do what you want man.

Answer 12

Well, considering I got the question right, I think I know what I'm talking about. I just wasnt exactly sure lol but good help. @KyanTheDoodle
