> Pierce is very logistic. That is the nature of his " analysis". He revolutionized Logic.

OK. But I stick to what I wrote. It's a matter of terms. Just because
a person uses logic, or computation, or even if she works to
revolutionize logic, does not mean that her method is logistic.
Descartes' method is logistic. He, like Peirce wrote about his search
for and use of his method. Peirce, pardon the pun, doubted Descartes
doubting, and this because he disentangled it, he used his method, not
computation or logic, but analytic.
