Are you assuming that if effective criticisms of the argument in question existed, they would be published in a manner that we should expect to find them?
Yes. And I think it's a reasonable assumption.
I was just pointing out a limit on the applicability of the heuristic; if someone controls the discourse, they can allow only bad criticisms of their arguments enter the discourse.
