Blanket Statement
Noun · Slang & Abbreviations
Definitions
A broad claim that applies the same conclusion to many cases without enough nuance, distinction, or evidence. In technical arguments, blanket statements are often criticized because edge cases and context matter too much to ignore.
In plain English: A broad overgeneralized claim that ignores important differences.
Example: "Saying microservices are always bad is a blanket statement, not an architecture review."
