That is correct, Tsskyx. You described something known as reduction ad adsurdum, a special yet powerful kind of argument.

Proving that a statement being true would create a contradiction is a great way to disprove such a statement. In fact.. Very commonly, you'll need to perform such an argument. I actually plan to go over this in a later part to this series.

Toby Fox has trolled before, Tsskyx. Any authority is argument from authority. Only the game itself can be used as evidence.

This is why I always say that using Toby as evidence is wrong! It's literally a logical fallacy!

Also, assuming that Toby is responsible for something because we don't understand it is a fallacy I like to call Dog of the Gaps.

I think that should let you know what this is a parallel to...
