WRT "logic"

You are using two quite different meanings for "logic" As you say, street
logic is quite rare, symbolic logic or whatever a syllabus calls it
nowadays, is a different animal.  The latter has a very constrained field of
view.

For another example. think of "implication" and what its derivatives means
to the average person.  I would rather have an example from another field
but it is the best I can do at the moment.
