People who are correct can come up with something better than an argumentum ad verecundiam.

Argumentum ad populum or ad numerum, it's always good to keep an eye for them!

Argument ad paginum (paginum being page) or perhaps argument ad opus (opus being work or labour) ?

paulchap | karma 76 | avg karma 1.52 · | 2020-06-26 12:21:59+00:00

Maybe a kind of argument ad verecundiam[0]?
