I mean... I can tautology too... but it won't change the fact that I'm sorely unable to observe "truth" from that which I might be lead to believe is "truth"... there is literally nothing that differs between a reasoning that is "correct" (what even is that?) and a reasoning that is only valid... nothing except whether or not I BELIEVE it.
Ofcourse I know the difference - sound reasoning is logically valid reasoning from true premises. That is the basis on which you can differentiate between actual truth and what you've been led to believe is true. And that is why I equate correct reasoning with sound reasoning because simply valid reasoning form untrue premises would lead you to incorrect conclusions.

You bring the validity, I'll get the soundness.

Short answer: If I am wrong, the concept of "wrong" would be rendered meaningless.
Long answer: Go look for it in all the other posts I've made on this forum.
