(that is 0 at some schools including this one and, bizarrely, 50 at others)

What's bizarre about it? <=50% points is a failing grade in every European country I've been in.

The essay deserved an F

Not according to the grading criteria for the assignment. And if yes, just barely.

The rule being selectively enforced here is "Undergraduates should be able to do undergraduate-level work". It isn't the specific rubric.

What's the evidence that this rule even exists? I can probably pull out a specific rule for the school that prohibits academic fraud, if you admit there isn't one here, you're admitting the cases aren't analogous.

When the F student isn't politically sympathetic, most Motteposters do.

Most motteposters are in favor of high standards. Failing a particular student a teacher doesn't like, but otherwise keeping the low standards isn't particularly popular.

A fundamentally righteous but rarely-enforced rule was enforced against an obviously-guilty member of a protected group

This is the similarity you're failing to show between the cases. As per the other thread the grading criteria for the assignment do not warrant a 0. Yes, it's a bad essay, but the criteria provided by the professor explicitly allows bad essays. Please show how there were similar rules that actually allow for the penalized conduct in this case.

It's not what I remember the argument being here.

Cool, I can't wait to make you defend an argument you never made, because that's how I "remembered" it.
