"To put it super crudely it's a sort of disagreement with the idea that informal rationality is just an approximation to the math instead of the other way around." - Srijit Sanyal gives the best one-line description of @Meaningness's views I've heard. Or at least I thought so?

Meta-rationality often involves ontological revision: re-thinking the categories, properties, relationships, and individuation criteria that you build a rational model on. Neither reasonableness nor formal rationality involve explicit theories, criteria, or methods for that.
-
Meta-rationality also often evaluates, selects, combines, modifies, discovers, creates, and monitors formal systems— in order to deal with complex situations which neither reasonableness or rationality, nor any combination of the two, treats adequately.
