People are never logical
summary
Claim: humans do not split cleanly into “logical” versus “emotional”; both arise from the same neurochemical processes. Evidence cites amygdala and adrenaline and everyday triggers (seeing a spider, a friend getting laid off, a Jared Leto trailer). No controlled numbers or experiments are offered; this is a conceptual synthesis delivered as a speedrun that argues for designing documentation and UX for a spectrum of cognitive states rather than policing emotion.
