Even if this were true, it would not disqualify the idea of having an ad hominem rule. Subjective tests are just fine. We attempt to frame the rule objectively in the following way: write on the subject being discussed and do not attack the other poster's character. We enforce the rule in a subjective way: The moderator determines when someone is crossing the line and causing the discussion to detour because of personal attacks. What is foolish about this?
