He did not claim they were exclusive.

Your comment is an example of the fallacy fallacy.

The "fallacy fallacy" is valid for itself, though:

> since the fallacy fallacy is itself a fallacy, it cannot be used to label an argument's conclusion as false without committing it in the process. "You have used the fallacy fallacy, therefore you are wrong"

Maybe so but I struggle to understand how, I must admit. In case you would care to elaborate I would be interested.

But unless you will argue that "logical thinking" is the correct term in this case I will submit that you have delivered a faulty argument yourself (since you invalidate my whole comment and not just the relevant part). Not sure which logical fallacy that represents though ...
