The LA Times article is paywalled, but I'm going to go out on a limb and say the reason is "the ocean."

It seemed to me like a rhetorical writing flourish that didn't land. They did the same thing for another candidate in the previous paragraph, faux agree with the criticism then sing the candidate's praises.

The literal best description of an ad hominem attack versus an insult, courtesy @zachweinersmith.bsky.social Link to original: www.smbc-comics.com/comic/hominem
An image of a professor from the online comic Saturday Morning Breakfast Cereal by Zach Weinersmith. The professor is explaining the difference between an ad hominem attack and an insult by saying "You are not wrong because you are a shit-for-brains. You are a shit-for-brains because you are wrong. Now, go in peace, my son."
