“Better” isn’t a function of the real world anyway- I’m appealing to it because most people here want to be rational, not because it is objectively better.
On thought, my response is that no circular argument can possibly be rational so the question of if rationality is binary is irrelevant. You are mostly right, though for some purposes rational/irrational is better considered as a binary.

What do you mean by “rational” is not a binary?
