2 plus 2 will always equal 4. As long as everything that makes up of the fabric of the 2 is equal to 2 then 2 of them will naturally equal 4. Great for math, but not for “reason.” Because someone says they have reasoned something, does not mean they have considered the sames issues nor even the same experiences in order to create what both parties might claim is a 2. Experientally, I dont even know if that’s possible. With reason the sum of 2 is only composed of the sum of its parts. The argument then only becomes a matter of who can deliver the most eloquent argument, whose thought is more popular, or when it comes to matters of reason in the American legal system: who is the better lawyer, regardless of innocence or truth. Of course, it only falls within the realm of “legal” and does not make any requirement for neither justice or fairness.
