Right, but he is not claiming that is the only argument available. How is providing credentials with his statement irrational?
We are not having a conversation with the man, it's a social media post with a character limit. You would have to assume that he cannot provide additional evidence if you want to label this as a logical fallacy.
This is why statements made outside of the courts ability to directly question as labeled as hearsay, not a fallacy. It very well may be true, and can provide toward the body of evidence. However, we're not able to question the witness to further understand their validity. We weren't arguing if it's a good source of certainty, we arguing if it is outside of reason.
