to be fair, logic and inference are different things. logic helps you build structure around a given set of axioms.
actually pure logic can be horribly unhelpful if you start with axioms that are not aligned with reality. that's why some really smart people can believe in stupid things.
starting with axioms "not aligned with reality" is not fault of logic ๐
