Well, sometimes "reason" depends on the one assessing the "reasoning."

That's the way the assessment too often works but that's because the assessor has an agenda. It is, however, possible to make an objective assessment of what is reasonable if one is so inclined. It's pretty cut and dried.

rather it's about the underlying psychological hold on them, one that defies data, sometimes unconventional data.

I take your point, but how do you determine that such a hold exists? I would do it by assessing the party's ability to offer a reasonable explanation. How would you do it?
