Calling out fallacies isn’t done for the benefit of the muppet. It’s done for the benefit of onlookers who might otherwise fall for the muppet’s bullshit.
Problem is that simply calling out the fallacies won’t convince most onlookers. They don’t get convinced by reason, but by emotive appeal. Doing it like in the OP, and saying “I banged your dad”, is often more effective.
I tend to call them as a second-to-last resource mostly as a final warning. “Stop saying dumb shit if you feel entitled to my attention”.
