I don't think there is such a thing as pure Kantian a priori
knowledge (at least not in the way he defined it). The inductive/
deductive concept is largely a linguistic illusion. Even a pure
thought has a physical experience component since without physicality
the thought could not exist. There is neural meat present at all
times.

But there are noticeable differences that exist between different
forms of experiences... and for one of those types that move closer to
our brains we use the term "a apriori". Kant noticed the difference
but overshot with his definition.
