There is nothing unnatural about logic. It is a necessary consequence of biological systems (nerves and neurons) compressing information by reducing the stimuli available in the natural world to catgories possible for the human body to act upon, by the process of organization by disambiguation into episodes of objects, spaces, and backgrounds, possible sets of action within them, and the valence available to any action.

Speech and reasoning from speech is just another further compression of information.

Language consists entirely of measurements. So, like episodes, we can reason “calculate” using those measurements.

Writing and symbols are a further means of compression and retention – this is why pencil and paper are useful and necessary both for compensating for limits of retention and for compensation for short term memory limits.
