Can we have a logical-reasoning tag? Or maybe: elementary-logic, logic-puzzle

The logic tag is intended for questions about formal logic, for instance propositional logic, first-order logic, proof theory, model theory, etc. However, we get questions which are really about a basic or elementary understanding of logic. For example:

• Why do people lose at chess? is tagged logic presumably because it would be appropriate to tag it as about logical reasoning, but it has nothing to do with formal logic.

• If the sum of four dice was 21, how many dice show 2? was closed for poor quality, but if it were open, it's hard to tag it appropriately. Currently it's tagged puzzle and discrete-mathematics, neither of which seem very appropriate. Really the question is most accurately described as an elementary logic puzzle, i.e. it is about basic logical deduction and logical reasoning.

I've looked through some things tagged logic and it seems for the most part it's being used in an acceptable manner. But it would be nice to have a tag for basic logical reasoning and logic puzzles.

(Some more examples that might benefit from this tag: 1, 2, 3.)

Can we have a logical-reasoning tag? Or maybe: elementary-logic, logic-puzzle

The logic tag is intended for questions about formal logic, for instance first-order logic, predicate logic, proof theory, model theory, etc. However, we get questions which are really about a basic or elementary understanding of logic. For example:

• Why do people lose at chess? is tagged logic presumably because it would be appropriate to tag it as about logical reasoning, but it has nothing to do with formal logic.

I've looked through some things tagged logic and it seems for the most part it's being used in an acceptible manner. But it would be nice to have a tag for basic logical reasoning and logic puzzles.
