    It is blatant plagiarism

    yes, and a solution could have been to cite sources.

    This was no innocent mistake of forgetting to list a source

    I don’t think, that not-citing-sources is an innocent mistake.

    Here is a rule-of-thumb to decide if an argument was convincing because it had good content, or because it was well written: If the content was good, it will be easy for you explain to a 3rd party. If only the presentation was good, then you will have a hard time convincing others.
