The purpose of the processing is irrelevant to Reason

The purpose of the processing is irrelevant to Reason

Chapter 04 — Processing • 04.01 — Reason • Paragraph 4 • §04.01.04.00

The purpose is the end outcome, the final processing operation in the sequence of processing operations dictated by Reason. The purpose can be anything, no matter how trivial or important. It is of course possible, as is usual in human lives, that smaller, case-specific purposes serve larger ones. For example, one eats a healthy meal in order to live a healthy life, a state manages payments in order to serve welfare needs and so on. In essence, in human life there is no purpose that does not serve another. The same is true at an informational level: small processing operations may be part of a larger picture. Neither Reason nor the larger picture are affected, however: each has its own methodology and purpose. Similarly, the fitness of the processing or the suitability for (or of) its purpose are irrelevant. Any attempt to discuss these topics will only reveal the respondent's beliefs, ideas and hopes.
