What if reality does not always obey the laws of logic? What if reality is sometimes inconsistent? This is a confusion of levels. Logic is rules about truth preservation in declarative sentences. Not 'obeying the laws of logic' just means declaring inconsistent sentences. We try to avoid this because such utterances would have no determinate meaning. So a *descriptions* of reality may be inconsistent (and therefore useless) but reality is just whatever it is. It can't be inconsistent because it's not assertions.
