In some cases, particularly your third, the adjective obscurantist and its noun obscurantism may be helpful.
[Merriam Webster](
Obscurantism:
a style (as in literature or art) characterized by deliberate vagueness or abstruseness
If you describe something as obscurantist, you mean that it is deliberately vague and difficult to understand, so that it prevents people from finding out the truth about it.
You may also find meandering helpful:
moving slowly in no particular direction or with no clear purpose:
a long meandering speech
The general quality of what you describe is that it is prolix, or marked by the relevant noun, prolixity
prolix: 1 : unduly prolonged or drawn out : too long
2 : marked by or using an excess of words
All of which makes the argument abstruse
Cambridge
abstruse:
not known or understood by many people.
