arguably = sounds like .....balmy.

Balm is an aromatic substance / herb, like basil.

Agree, geo0939 and kettledrum ,that the explanation you have given is most likely the correct one, but I am also very taken /amused with the Basil Fawlty/host/barmy version.

I like your reasoning Kettledrum, but I think it more likely that the reference is to Basil Fawlty's 'barminess'. 'Arguably' indicates 'for instance' rather than 'sounds like' - and your theory wouldn't include an actual definition, forbidden in clueing laws!
