I agree!                  And disagree
In a one on one debate, then I agree.
​
In a 'free for all' which is the nature of this forum, this makes such rules impractical, though I believe that in order for the 'sub debate' to advance, the statements you made are generally fair...the opponent can bow out of the sub debate, at any time with no ethical obligations to continue.
