double standard

For a person who claimed X=A in one situation C1 and X=B in another situation C2 A phrase often used by those who insist that "A≠B, so X=A and X=B are incompatible."

You can invalidate it by arguing that it's a false abstraction that's discarding the situation.

• It's funny that you assume X is implicitly a constant.
• It is actually a function of the situation [$ f(\cdot)
• There is nothing wrong with [$ f(C_1) = A, f(C_2) = B
