Reasoning with some people is like herding cats! If you wanna illiterally split hair: where on earth did you read that LTC went bankrupt??? And why is Modigliani 'expert in the field' and Merton AND Scholes not? Therefore your appeal is logically consistent and mine irrelevant?? Plus why is your argument called 'kiss-up-to-authority' and not 'name-calling'??? I have lots more questions ... I believe, in logic, this kind of persuasion by invoking authority is labelled 'name-calling'? No. It's called an appeal to authority, and in this case it is appropriate and justified, because Modigliani is an expert in the field. Had I invoked Pikabo Street or Jane Fonda you would be justified in chastising me. In this case an appeal to Modigliani is logically consistent. Second, neither Merton nor Scholes went bankrupt; LTC did. And in any case, it is irrelevant. Finally, your analogy to the universe is specious.
