Relying on logic and rationalism is just intelligence. Emotional Intelligence is understanding and to some degree using peoples emotions, if you want to be very correct. You dont use emotions to define social policy, and hopefully, any social policy will be devoid of emotions, because that can only lead towards confusion, biasedness and group mentality.
If you want to define EI as ability to step away from one’s own emotions. Sure. We can agree with that. Personally I would just call that intelligence.
