A rhetorical strategy where the form of an argument is prioritized over its actual content—critiquing structure, style, or presentation while ignoring the substantive claims being made. Often appears in academic or intellectual debates: "Your argument lacks rigor," "This isn't properly formatted," "You haven't engaged with the literature." The critique may be valid, but it becomes fallacious when it substitutes for engaging the actual ideas. Structure matters, but substance matters more.
"They spent an hour critiquing my sources and formatting and never addressed my central thesis. That's Structure over Substance—judging the package while ignoring what's inside. Form matters, but when form becomes the only focus, substance gets buried alive."

And it's so bad that the only thing you can think of is starting over from scratch... But you already did that like 2 times already and it didn't work... But you don't know why it won't work because you didn't invent artificial intelligence... I know why it won't work! I could explain it immediately actually."

BAM! Here is your definition. Now enjoy the rest of your day and make sure to not poke around inside a microwave or try to replicate anything you see online that involves using the transformer to generate high voltage electricity unless u really know what ur doing!
A young teenager who saw an article online about wood fracking decided to try and replicate it. He connected the microwave oven transformer up as seen in the article, but forgot to isolate himself properly and the ground outside was damp. He was electrocuted and died.
