... much less have the effects we think they do. The fallacy here is that the more we think about something, the more correct we presume our conclusions must be, whereas in reality, analyzing a flawed premise just creates a more confident error.

I wonder how many people who were unable to visit a dying parent, elderly relative or sick friend would have happily paid a £50 fixed penalty notice if they had known that was an option. #Partygate
