The competitor is distorting the argument from the original issue. By accusing the business of being anti-science, they are shifting the focus away from the specific claims about chemical-free cleaning agents and instead questioning the validity of those claims in a broader context. This can divert the discussion from the effectiveness or safety of the cleaning agents used.
