IMHO much of this stems from an inability to impose a standard of
relevance on evidence. If you are discussing someone's specific
wrongdoing, it is usually completely irrelevant for an accuser to bring
up an event that was settled last year. So too is the accused's
behaviour toward a third person who is not part of the case. That third
person may have a higher tolerance level for silliness.
