They are rational and knowable for the person holding them and irrational and unknowable for everyone else.

I disagree.
Most people have poor self-awareness and don't understand themselves or their own needs.
I also don't believe rationality is subjective but an objective statement about the world. You might not know if someone else's actions are rational, but that has no bearing on how rational they actually are.
Maybe this is an unfair generalization, but usually when i hear people say something like, the world runs on emotions, its used as an out to avoid having to understand where the other person is coming from, on the [BS] principle that emotions are irrational and unknowable.
