Interesting points  Yes there is a policy issue with citing primary sources  Using primary sources to prove secondary sources as incorrect does legitimately violate WPNOR  However in this case it does bring up an issue of verifiability concerning the initial secondary source Fallon per WPVERIFY  So this is problem of two policies conflicting to which I believe there is a solution  I assume that such problems are not uncommon  Ill look into it and get back to you  In the meantime Id advise against editwarring  The issue will be settled in due time  Please note that I am not an admin and cannot block people as such
