Poor rationality skills do not necessarily translate to an incapacity for rationality.

In my case I'd just say "I prefer to be less wrong. I use the best tools to make the best outcomes I can. Wouldn't you want to?" (Usually I time this after I've given extensive advice to someone based on just that.)
