I tend to argue that “slippery slope” is not actually a logical fallacy the way others (e.g. straw man) are.
A slippery slope is often a legitimate concern.
Using it as the sole means to shut down an idea is often disingenuous, but so, too, is shutting down any concerns of a ”snowball effect” by calling it a logical fallacy.
