added statement regarding an argument having "substance"
In [[philosophy]], "sub-stance" is the essence, the unseen reality that "stands under" or is the foundation of that of which a thing outwardly consists, the real under-lying essence of actual being which is expressed by the changeable "accidents" or visible manifestations or perceptible qualities of the thing, even of persons; hence, physical matter is not of itself the fundamental substance of existence.

In [[rhetoric]] an [[argument]] is ''substantiated'' when presented as founded on irrefutable [[reason]], [[logic]]al [[premise]]s, and verifiable [[facts]] as [[evidence]]. This constitutes a [[persuasion|compelling]] argument having substance. [[Confimation bias]] can resist such an argument without offering substantive reasons having any real substance.
