 As pointed out by Krabbe (1985: 297) and mentioned above, material dialogues—that is, dialogues in which propositions have content—receive, in the writings of Paul Lorenzen and Kuno Lorenz, priority over formal dialogues: material dialogues constitute the locus where the logical constants are introduced. However, in the standard dialogical framework, both material and formal dialogues have a purely syntactic notion of the Formal Rule, through which logical validity is defined (because of how it accounts for analyticity and formality, as explained in the previous sections). The original intention of having content is thus bypassed in the standard framework, with the consequence that Krabbe and others after him considered that formal dialogues have, all in all, priority over material ones. In the context of the Immanent Reasoning framework, this is explained as stemming from shortcomings of the standard approach, and it is argued that this can be overcome when local reasons are expressed. The claim is then that by doing so it is possible to fulfill this original intention of the dialogical framework.
