One benefit of accepting that the brain functions on heuristics is that you may embrace learning techniques that lean into this.
E.g.: the narrative heuristic.
Bad: cognitive bias when interpreting data.
Good: embed lessons in a story to remember those lessons better.

+1. I'd be really interested to hear more about your experiences, because it seems like this is the main way to actually apply ecological rat/heuristics work to decision making. You can sort of talk directly to your own System 1 in a language it understands.

I've been thinking about how to write about this. Will probably need a couple more months of experimentation, though.
