XiXiDu’s comment made me realize what the really important implication of this result is: it’s not that learning a foreign language is a way to improve rationality (though maybe it is); it’s that if you want other people to be rational, don’t speak to them in their native language.
Kind of makes me wonder whether the Sequence translations are such a good idea after all...

I have my doubts that I am neurotypical or otherwise close to the norm, e.g. socially or culturally or when it comes to an education. So I wouldn’t assign much weight to my perception here. Although the fact that someone else agreed seems to corroborate what I wrote.

Of course they are! Native English speakers deserve a chance to discuss the Sequences rationally, too. :D
