    How is it not a false dichotomy? It erroneously forces us to choose between 2 options, when in actual fact there is a third option.

    And, I’m really not. I was asked for an example/elaboration of how the fallacy might be used, and that was my best example. However it can likely apply to other situations too. If you recall, I initially just asked for what the fallacy might be called, without specifying any examples until I was asked for one.
