I was talking about an argument that doesn't involve anything de facto.
While most people consider presidents clearly notable, I explained the
reasons you could use to point it out.
My government also designates whether the field behind my house will
be designated as a residential area or a green place. That doesn't
neccesarily mean the place warrants an article.
It's exactly the comments that claim a certain category of articles is
worth an entry by default (or not) that I'm trying to avoid here.
Those are the cause of endless inclusionist vs. deletionist debates.
Can you actually point out any reasons that don't depend on de facto
or by default notability?

all of them?
Yeah, that they're designated by the state and de facto "notable".
