This makes it good for formal maths, but bad for philosophy, since it means it can’t encode the speculative movement

Which logic are you saying “can’t encode the speculative moment”?

I think the two logics can emulate one another? Or, at the very least, can describe what the other concludes. I know intuitionistic logic can have classical logic embedded in it through some sort of “put double negation on everything”. I think if you add some sort of modal operator to classical logic you could probably emulate intuitionistic logic in a similar way?
