I think rational in this context doesn't include emotional logic. I see your point though. I'm just saying I think they're using the word differently than you.

If it doesn't include emotional logic when humans are fundamentally emotional beings, then it's not rational.

Which is why I think it's clear they're using the term rational differently and not including emotional logic.
