#reasoning

Reasons by mapping one domain's relational structure onto another to borrow solved problems, treating each analogy as a hypothesis to transfer and then break at its disanalogy

Reasons up from irreducible truths instead of by analogy — decomposing a problem to fundamentals and rebuilding, to escape inherited assumptions about how things must be done.

Renders vague or obvious claims into explicit arguments, then tests them with counterexamples, distinctions, and thought experiments until only what survives the reasons is held.
