Abstract

Whilst different areas of argumentation theory might focus upon different phenomena, or offer competing accounts, there is unspoken consensus that foundational features such as linked-ness, convergence and even support or attack should be reliably distinguishable in the wild. After detailed analysis of more than ten thousand arguments in the QT30 corpus (Hautli-Janisz et al. 2022a, b), it seems as though this consensus view is false, challenging fundamental notions of descriptive adequacy from across argumentation theory.
