    #False_Dilemma or #False_Dichotomy:
    If someone presents only two options or outcomes, when in reality there are other options, it is called a false dilemma/dichotomy.

    Example: "If we don't build more highways, traffic will be unbearable"
    • this presents buildings highways as the only solution to traffic, where in reality there are many other factors.
