1 is wrong. Please try again.

The logicality requirement tells us

This would make it impossible to believe anything. Every argument appeals to premises -- and we can't prove these premises by further premises endlessly. So every argument eventually appeals to premises that we accept without further argument.

3 is wrong. Please try again.

The logicality requirement tells us

    { 1 } - not to accept what we haven't proved.
    { 2 } - not to accept incompatible beliefs at the same time.
    { 3 } - to do a lot of reasoning.
    { 4 } - not to have deep feelings.
    { 5 } - not to change our minds.

Whether you are inconsistent in your beliefs has little to do with how much reasoning you do.

    { 3 } - to do a lot of reasoning.

You can change your mind, so long as you don't hold incompatible beliefs at the same time.
