Earlier quoted context omitted.
I think the english language conflates intuition with emotion, referring to two separate actions (intuiting and emotionally responding to) with the same word: "feel".
And I think I know you are wrong about this. Speaking as a former musician and now designer.
I wasn't saying the two were exclusive, merely that the use of the word "feels" conflates the two. "This (design|note|architecture decision|etc.) 'feels' right" could be taking from both column a and b (how much of each column would surely be dependent on the subject matter).
