Most of the “false dichotomy” claims here are from folks claiming it’s an “unheard tree in the woods” problem—if you use one definition, you get one answer, and if you use another definition, then it’s another answer, so if we just tabooed the relevant words then the dispute would go away.
Other: Agree that it’s a false dichotomy.

Agree on other. Rational cogitation is a kind of sensory experience.
