Actually Fi types are the ones most likely to make these sort of mistakes, and either they will do something such as assuming two contradictory positions because they cannot let go of one or the other.
The problem of logic is that everyone uses it regardless of whether or not they believe in it.
Take your propositions here...
Just because something is logically sound, does not mean that it is actually accurate (this is how I feel about the forum).
Because x, then y and this sort of thinking is inescapable for anyone. But by devaluing and not understanding logic one will constantly use logic in ignorance and blindness and result in inconsistent and contradictory positions.
The wierd thing about Fi types is that they are often use logic or at least the mechanics of formal logic without knowing it but to apply it to absurd notions of morality and traditions such as "Eating pork is dirty", "Homosexuality is a sin" and the like. Because these absurd preferences which they develop and apply formal logic to, they come up with multiple contradictory positions for whatever they happen to be attached to.
Let's not forget that Fi, Fe, Ti, Te are all
rational functions. Ti just happens to deal with the nature of logic and methods of logical analysis.
