Another, more humanistic observation of this, is that why are we assuming that a logical argument is somehow superior ?
I mean, we are all humans exhibiting illogic !
Are there any 'Spocks' out there with whom we can have purely illogic free conversations with ?
Politicians, (and lawyers), all seem to exhibit vast knowledge of all these fallacies, and actually exploit them to gain 'power'. (Which seems to be of course, their main goal in life
).
