how is there an ethics in logic?

In the choice, not part of the logic itself, to abide within the terms of the logic.

it sounds to me like you're admitting of a relativism even as far as one's choice of using logic.

What's your point?

no point. It's just that you're the first to willingly admit that. I recognize it's not really significant as most people do end up adhering to logic.

Sorry, relativism won't do. Unless you're prepared to demonstrate that nothing is better - or worse - than anything else. And with respect to any relativism of logic, that 2+2=5 and 2+2=6 and 2+2= whatever you want.

You asked

I answered that there is an ethics in logic, but that logic is not ethics, nor ethics logic.

Baking a cake isn't logic, but certainly in the steps in creating and baking a cake there is a logic; e.g., you mix and blend the ingredients and then bake them: you don't bake first and then mix.

I didn't have one. I'm not trying to discuss relativism in this thread unless you insist

Good. No relativism. And I'm not admitting of any.
