Being high-class means that you can afford to spend your time on issues that are impractical. As a result you had throughout history high class people signal the fact that they are high class by spending their time on impractical matters.
I’ll mention this site or rationality as a practice in General. Typically, I get what I believe is a cached response most people saw somewhere that follows along something like this, “Rationalists are too high in the clouds to have useful ideas. Logic is impractical.”
Applied rationality doesn’t have that much to do with using logic. It doesn’t violate logic but a lot of what we talk about, is about different heuristics. It might be worthwhile to present the idea of applied rationality differently.

This seems like an issue of conflating logic with applied rationality, then. Chances are that I made this mistake in writing my post. I’ll be sure to check for conflation in the rhetoric I use, chances are that certain words used will carry with them a connotation that signals to the listener a need to reply with a cached response.
