I would equate rationality with logic. Thus, the (subjective) priors are an input to rationality. LW Rationality appears to mix in a few subjective priors with the rationality.
That’s not what the word usually means on this site. You seem to be simultaneously objecting that (a) your idea of rationality is not optimal, and (b) LW rationality doesn’t perfectly follow your idea of rationality.
I wasn’t talking about priors. If you have a hunch because something is simpler, then that would be priors, but if you have a hunch because you’ve been subconsciously collecting evidence too vague to be put into words, then reality is causing the hunch, so it’s just evidence.
