This comment redefines the "power" as it's defined above, in particular by forgetting that it's "over others":

> I think both of those things do give people that rush of power and control over others.

That was presumably unintentional; I just wanted to point out that it's a different philosophical topic.

I don't strictly disagree with the idea but it's not the same as saying that someone solving a sudoku is doing it for the sake of having power over the puzzle's creator and/or the curator of the book/app that included the puzzle. It seems more likely that they're doing it instead because when they would solve puzzles in the past they would get a hit of dopamine, which taught them that solving puzzles is rewarding. I think this seems to fall under "rush of power" per this meaning but it's not "rush of power and control over others" per the initial one.
