Ian said to dmb:
Logic is itself a set of constraints, but we should not be constrained to
arguments where logical relations between objects (spv's) are our ONLY tools.
I'm rejecting a narrow definition of intellect defined only by logic. ...We
are expanding intellect by adding "quality" considerations to it. BUT, those
"quality" considerations do not all lend themselves to objective logic -
algebraic language about "objects". Logical rationality and definitions are
indeed the "foundation" for the expanded intellect - but not the whole of it -
we need to build the extensions above it.

Who ever said any such thing such that you should feel the need to reject it.
Looks like a silly straw man to me.
Thanks for nothing and congrats on the dazzling bullshit. You successfully
evaded the criticism without letting me see that. Nope, I didn't notice any
weasel-like moves at all.
