This feels more like an inventory of unsporting behaviors rather than actual strategy/tactics of bad-faith verbal conflict

Good question. W my 9 year olds I’ve had to equate verbal violence with physical violence.

I’m not sure we need a handbook for bad faith logic. It seems to be a widely employed skill in the population

Plato? All of the Socratic dialogues are about identifying postulations or contentions based on bad logic, with the dialogues whittling down why the arguments are poor. That's, y'know, kinda the value of the humanities. :-)

Nope. Not what I'm talking about. That's more like sports, not active conflict. And no, that's decidedly not the value of the humanities, anymore than soccer training is military training.
