It’s sort of the converse of argument by association, whereby someone compares A to B regarding characteristic Y, then acts as though they’ve established it as equal in characteristic Z themselves. (I changed “comparable” to “equal” because it seems like using “comparable” that way is a minor instance of the fallacy in itself.)
