Why are logicians, logicians rather than mathematicians?

While logic is certainly a fundamental aspect of mathematics, logicians focus specifically on the structure, rules, and applications of logical reasoning, often in a broader context than just mathematical problems.

logicians specialize in the formal study of logical systems and their applications, while mathematicians engage in a broader exploration of mathematical principles, theories, and their practical applications across various disciplines.

Mathematicians, on the other hand, study the properties and relationships of numbers, quantities, shapes, and patterns. While logic plays a significant role in mathematics, mathematicians often apply logical reasoning as a tool to solve problems and prove theorems within their field.
