How many near identical choices do you need? How muc time do you want to spend evaluating all those options. Someone else to narrow it down saves you a lot of effort.

when the differences don't matter or are things you areenot aware of this is more important.

What a weird argument. Their decision making likely does not match mine. Where does the limitation end?

They should find 2 or 3 options that are good enough.

Nothing stops you from evaluating all possible options - but in most cases you have too many other things to do and a simple set of options lets you get on with life.

What a weird thing to say to someone else.

If it isn't true get a life. Well I suppose someone reading this is confined to a hospital bed or prison cell and thus has plenty of time with nothing better to do.

It is certainly odd that you have to resort to “get a life” statements in your argument here. Why do you feel the need to control what other people do? Should we all spend our time trying to accumulate 22k Karma on some forum?

If you personally want to look at all options for any one widget in your life that is fine, I won't judge you for it. Whoever realize that for whatever that widget most people don't. Also realize that for all the different things you need in life there are more options that you have time to examine while also doing those other things in life you must do.

Seems pretty judgey to me.

Because I’m a rational person, I know when I need to examine different options specifically matching what I need and when I just choose a random one.

You are free to visit shops that offer you just one option for a given category of it is too much cognitive load to make decisions like that. Just don’t force that on me and tell me that it is good for me. You might also want to get a number for the one therapist they offer there too, because having trouble making simple decisions is something that should get attention.
