For All Intensive Purposes

The correct way of saying the phrase actually makes less sense logically. You're telling me I can use this car to julien fries? Do my laundry? Perform open heart surgery? That's what it would mean if it was for all intents and purposes.
To my mind, you reversed the subject of the phrase. Itโs not a car with which to do or be whatever. Itโs that regardless of whatever may be needed or intended, this IS in fact a car. Iโm not saying that makes awhole lot more sense though ๐คทโโ๏ธ.
The wrong way isn't any better.
for all intensive purposes
What about my calm and gentle purposes?
Can I not go for a light cruise?
Am I to be denied the experience of a succulent Chinese meal relaxing journey by car?
sunglasses and cigarette clearly is a lifestyle devoted to intense purposes!
