Calling Neph'sFollow

I am imposing a brand new internet fallacy:

As a Usenet discussion grows longer, the probability of a comparison between modern Christians and the Crusades of the 11th -13th centuries approaches one." There is a tradition in many groups that,
once this occurs, that thread is over, and whoever mentioned the Crusades has
automatically lost whatever argument was in progress. Neph's Law
thus practically guarantees the existence of an upper bound on
thread length in those groups


Discuss.

I'm still working on getting Gbaji's Law into common usage, but I can see the need for this one as well.
