All fair -- except the context is there's sort of a self-proclaimed "rationalist" community which is known for eschewing social norms to the point of seemingly deliberately over-considering controversial ideas as a reaction (e.g. certain racial topics, pandemic, etc). I think those people are the type we're talking about.

A truly rational person would potentially never call themselves "rational" because they would know most people find it an alienating term and kinda an unfair self-assessment.
