Summary

Description
English: Blowfish Fallacy Icon

The Blowfish fallacy is a form of red herring, used to distract people from important scientific findings. This technique focuses on an inconsequential methodological aspect of scientific research—that typically have no substantial impact on the final result—blowing it out of proportion in order to distract from or cast doubt on the research conclusion.
