I think I've found the problem: I don't have any good intuitive notion of absurdity. The only clear association I have with it is under "absurdity heuristic" as "a thing to ignore".
That is: It's not self evident to me that what it implies IS absurd. After all, it was implied by a chain of logic I grok and can find no flaw in.
I used "absurdity" in the technical math sense.
