Does Persuasion present more ethical dilemmas than Argumentation?

This position holds that persuasion raises the harder ethical questions, because it aims at changing what someone believes or does by whatever means work, whereas argumentation submits reasons the other party remains free to evaluate and reject.

This position holds that the two raise the same ethical questions, since both are attempts to change another person's mind and both can be conducted honestly or deceptively, so the dilemmas belong to the conduct rather than to the method.

This position holds that persuasion raises fewer dilemmas, because it is open about seeking to move people, whereas argumentation claims a neutrality it rarely has and so conceals its influence behind the appearance of disinterested reasoning.
