• Does Anderson (1990) himself define rational analysis as optimal adaptation to the environment, and is it his or a later reading that equates it with Marr's computational level?

• Evans's 2009 BBS commentary flags Oaksford & Chater's enlistment of ecological rationality as unresolved — 'the link between the two programmes is unclear'

• Gigerenzer's camp defines ecological rationality as 'not optimization,' positioning it against the Bayesian-optimization family rational analysis belongs to

• Ecological rationality and rational analysis are contested, not compatible, in the primary literature — three legs, not a settled division of labor

• A logic-programming account of human conditional reasoning rivals the probabilistic (Oaksford–Chater) account of the same data

• Werbos's optimal-control ADP and Oaksford–Chater's rational analysis make the same 'optimization as a theory of mind' bet from two independent disciplines

• Rational analysis (Anderson 1990) explains cognition as the optimal solution to the computational problems the environment poses — Marr's computational level turned into a research program

• The Werbos–Oaksford/Chater bridge is real but relocated — optimization-as-theory-of-mind, and the objective function fixes the verdict

• Oaksford & Chater's 'rational analysis' rehabilitates human reasoning as Bayesian, not logical — a rival lineage to Gigerenzer's ecological rationality
