Except being rational is not void of emotional reasoning, so "perfectly rational" does not mean "thinking without any emotional logic involved whatsoever". This person isn't thinking rationally, they're just thinking very literally.
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.
