Fairness - competitive activity needs to be fair to ensure that people actually do the competitive
activity and to ensure that it actually has meaning, as it is only competitive if participants have an
equal chance of winning; a duel with a rocket launcher and a sword is ridiculous. And, the judge
cant make a neutral decision if the round is skewed toward one debater or another.
Education - the only real impact of the round that we take away, hurting education means that
you devalue debate itself.
SEE DEPENDING ON THE POSITION: switch-sides debate good, aff must be topical, nonimplementable kritik alternatives bad, mindset fiat bad and paradigm issues.
