It is ineffective because it does not provide a logical reason for opposing the counterclaim.

"While the proof of a link is debatable, what is not debatable is the foolishness of allowing children to choose whatever video game they would like, since it empowers children unnecessarily." This rebuttal does not have a logical reason ; it is an opinion. The underlined words represent the speaker's opinion.
