Nice read. As another commentator mentioned, this is a great real-world application of Kahneman's 'Thinking, Fast and Slow.' The author's examples illustrates how leaning into System 2 thinking can be a powerful strength, not a weakness.

Note though, that the book has been criticized for low reliability. ("Replication crisis", https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thinking,_Fast_and_Slow)

I read the book and many ideas felt like "yes, that sounds reasonable and feels good" but that is a danger of the book. The very seductions it describes applies also to its readers.

Dunning Kruger effect - debunked. Etc.
