The ad hominem abusive would be a problem if I were trying to explain why your comment as you’ve said it is wrong. That’s not what has been happening. What has happened is that I’ve explained that your comments were downvoted because they were wrong.
Btw, to make it simpler imagine that the Roland of today is another person than
the Roland who wrote the past comments, lets call him “RolandPast”. Now I’ll
paraphrase you: “RolandPast got downvoted repeatedly because RolandPast
made claims that were demonstrably extremely unlikely and hist attempts to
marshal evidence for his claims relied on very poor fact checking. Downvoting for > such reasons isn’t “scientific fraud.”
Right. And if Roland made a claim about why RolandPast got downvoted then giving an alternative explanation for why RolandPast gotdownvoted (essentially exactly what you said above) isn’t an ad hominem of any form.
