Your Definition
A meta-fallacy and meta-bias that functions as the opposite of a [logical leap]. Instead of criticizing an actual leap in reasoning, the accuser labels any inference—no matter how well-supported—as a “logical leap,” “hasty generalization,” or “[non sequitur].” The goal is to discredit the opponent’s logic or conclusions without engaging the content. Logical retention sets an impossibly high bar for what counts as a valid step, demanding that every premise be exhaustively defended and every implication be explicitly spelled out. It is a form of epistemic gatekeeping that makes productive argument [impossible].
