According to that explanation, why does it not seem to apply (at least not as much), in situations where the disappointment is not a surprise?
if there’s no surprise then your mental model was right I think? your agency/threat detection explanation seems correct - those guys are focusing on humor more than anger and I hadn’t thought about the “sudden anger” connection
