Some of those don't appear to be fully general counterarguments.

for example: "Meta: The opponent is using fully general counterarguments."

does not work if your opponents counterarguments aren't examples of fully general counterarguments.

After all, this isn't just a list of things people can shout.That would just be a list of annoying arguments.
