I answered your question.  If I didn't interpret your question properly sarcasm won't make it any clearer.  And what do you mean by 'should'?   That might be a better question?  Who should?   Little ole convention me?  Do we need to delve onto the topic of anatta once again?

You originally presented the question, so you provide the definitions specific to your inquiry, otherwise check the dictionary.  What do YOU mean by reason and logic?  And conventionally important compared to what?   If you are attempting to present a point of your own, just present it clearly and I'll consider it.
