Well, lost the first version so I\'ll do a second version.: It\'s called StrawmanHasAPoint because StrawmanHasAValidPoint is awkward. If you read the trope description its clear that if you have to really reach (say, into entirely different disciplines and centuries), it doesn\'t fit the trope. Or, to reverse your apocalyptic view of a gutted page, we\'d have to include every example where the strawman could, by some tortuous stretch, be right. (eg. \

Well, lost the first version so I\\\'ll do a second version.: It\\\'s called StrawmanHasAPoint because StrawmanHasAValidPoint is awkward. If you read the trope description its clear that if you have to really reach (say, into entirely different disciplines and centuries), it doesn\\\'t fit the trope. Or, to reverse your apocalyptic view of a gutted page, we\\\'d have to include every example where the strawman could, by some tortuous stretch, be right. (eg. \\\"all humanity must die because it eats kittens!\\\" Well, since kittens shed fur and skin and that wafts around the atmosphere that\\\'s probably technically true. Doesn\\\'t make it this trope.) We don\\\'t want the trope page bloated either.
I won\\\'t get into WallStreet since I haven\\\'t seen it.
You are welcome to look at the page history and see the edits I made. Most of it was ConversationInTheMainPage, IGBM, and bitching not fit even for IJBM, several of which never actually said what the point was. I left many in that I did not agree with or changed the wording to be less confrontational.
Pages collect detritus- that\\\'s a fact of every wiki but especially this TV Tropes, and it needs periodic sorting out. It\\\'s not that Jordan and I do it to this page, its a wiki wide thing. Editors find the pages they think need work or maintenance and overhaul them periodically, since most edits are with their one bit in mind, not the flow of the page as a whole. And I think that\\\'s it.
Sorry about the double post.
