Improved finger/moon language

[Dancing David]

I am sure this is old stuff.

Recently I have seen three seperate applications of what I call the revese finger moon argument.

I label the classic finger moon argument as being one where someone attacks a model based upon unproven juxtaposition of factors. Stating that there is not a coincidence without evidence , confirmation bias and straw man arguments are all of this type. Someone mistakes thier finger for the moon and procedes merrily on thier way.

But recently I have noticed a new line of argument (which is my new recognition, not the argument) and I have labeled it a reverse finger moon argument.

It goes like this:
-the model is not reality (magnetic reconnection)
-there is a popular notion is 'obvious' that you are ignoring (mind and psychology)
-the model is an abstraction (mobius strip)

So while I think the finger/moon argument can be labeled as such I think I need a pithy little label for this reverse argument.

Thanks

How about "The deeply confusing argument"?
