I think this reads to me as a way for you to couch your ignorance as criticism while learning nothing from reading a study like this. Why not do this for your own biases?
What metrics do you focus on while reading an article that result in you confirming your own preconceived ideas?
If you have to come at an article like this in a hostile way, then you're not learning anythign about it, you're just confirming your own biases. I think I would recommend that you focus all of these criticisms inward at your own biases in terms of what you react to and need to explain and see if it's explained in the paper above. Then see if you find yourself convinced by the scientific method that they undertook?
Otherwise you're prepping yourself to continue living in an echo chamber.
1. You assume that your LLM of choice is perfect and impartial on every given topic, ever.
2. You assume that your prompt doesn't interfere with said impartiality. What you have written may seem neutral at first glance, but from my perspective, a wording like yours would probably prime the model to try to pick apart absolutely anything, finding flaws that aren't really there (or make massive stretches) because you already presuppose that whatever you give it was written with intent to lie and misrepresent. The wording heavily implies that what you gave it already definitely uses "persuasion tactics", "emotional language" or that it downplays/overstates something - you just need it to find all that. So it will try to return anything that supports that implication.

That only works if:
1. You assume that your LLM of choice is perfect and impartial on every given topic, ever.
2. You assume that your prompt doesn't interfere with said impartiality.
