I think this was a legitimate use of "by definition", since it's the definition we use on this website. You're right that "rational" has often meant "blindly crunching numbers without looking at all available information &c." but I thought we had a widespread agreement here not to use the word like that.
You're right that my response seems excessive, but I don't know if it actually is excessive rather than merely seeming so.
A term "bad rationality" is also used on this website. It is a partial rationality, and it may be harmful. On the other hand, as humans, partial rationality is all we have, don't we?
But now I am discussing labels on the map, not the territory.
