The reasoning in Melchior's argument is most vulnerable to criticism on the grounds that it
defends a certain practice on the basis that it has a certain benefit without considering whether an alternative practice has the same benefit
draws a conclusion that simply restates a claim that is presented in support of that conclusion
inappropriately introduces normative claims in support of a conclusion that is entirely factual
distorts an argument against feeding cow's milk formula to infants and then attacks this distorted argument
confuses an absence of evidence in support of a claim with the existence of evidence against a claim
