Rationalizations are what we don't see anywhere else.
Sorry but that is not any more true now than the last time you said it.
We are talking about rationalizations, which by now you should know what the word means. False arguments intended to self-deceive.
Give me the example of that in nature.
I presented videos the last time, you simply rejected the evidence, even with the scientist telling you that the crows rationalized.
Here's an article about a Yale study on capuchin monkeys....

False arguments intended to self-deceive.
This is called cognitive dissonance, not rationalization.
The example above, as well as the previous video of the crows, demonstrate cognitive dissonance in other animals.
Here's a study on cognitive dissonance in pigeons:

Now please present for us any credible biologist stating that rationalization or cognitive dissonance is a uniquely human attribute? If you can't provide this evidence, it proves that you are once again LYING to us, as you have become very comfortable doing.
