I'm glad you asked. Among the arguments *in all sincerity* advanced by advocates of spoiler warnings:

Ok, this argument is clearly bad.
It *isn't* obvious that plot sections contain spoilers. A spoiler is not "any plot element". It's entirely possible for a plot section to contain no spoilers at all.
That would generally make for an inadequate plot section.
This prolonged "debate" makes me feel like a customer in Monty Python's pet shop.
