super-rationalism

The paradigm that the minimum material-cost-to-profit-ratio (inverted; in trillions) is the purchasing power of the entire body politic.
In America; the material cost of acquisition must be 1:14 in order for the retail-service provider to provide a profit.

Super-rationalism would thus portend the aggregate purchasing power of the American consumer to be--in totum-- fourteen trillion dollars.

inter-rationalism

The paradigm that your immune system is your personality.
Inter-rationalism asserts that all your elements-of-feeling appear via poly-rationalism into the immune system. Thus the immune system contains the elements of feeling.

Meta-Rationality

The practice of knowing when to not apply pure, cold rationality because the situation calls for something else—empathy, intuition, trust, or commitment. It's the understanding that unbounded rationality can be self-defeating (e.g., rationally, you should never trust anyone, but that makes cooperation impossible). Meta-rationality is about choosing the appropriate epistemic framework, which sometimes means turning off the hyper-logical analyzer to actually live your life.
Example: "Rationally, she knew the odds of her marriage lasting were statistically bleak. Meta-rationally, she chose to commit anyway, understanding that the irrational leap of faith was necessary to create the trust and bond the statistics could never measure. She called it 'statistically informed love.'" Meta-Rationality

Hasty Rationality

The premature application of cold, utilitarian, or cost-benefit analysis to a situation that requires emotional processing, ethical deliberation, or simply more time. It’s trying to be rational before you have all the values or facts on the table, often leading to a "correct" but tone-deaf or inhuman conclusion.
Example: "At the funeral, his hasty rationality was jarring: 'Statistically, driving here was more dangerous than the illness that killed him. Our grief is therefore irrational.' He'd calculated the risks correctly but rationalized away the human context at a wildly inappropriate speed."

Sweeping Rationality

The imperialistic overreach of a particular model of rationality (often hyper-logical, quantitative, or scientistic) into domains where it is ill-suited, such as art, love, spirituality, or tradition. It sweeps away other ways of knowing by declaring them "irrational."
Example: "His sweeping rationality killed the poetry reading. 'A sunset isn't "beautiful,"' he said. 'It's just Rayleigh scattering. And your poem about loss is just a dopamine deficit triggered by memory recall.' He swept the entire room's experience into the narrow bin of reductive materialism."
