Another one I like that is disturbingly true is the monkey trap tree.
Dealing with asymmetry hard coded in the brain hints that the house always wins. You can burn all your possessions to the ground, but you will still find yourself picking things out of the burn pile even though you told yourself red pills from this point forward. Reading the book thinking fast and slow only reminds you that these bugs are hard coded. Like any handicap, strategy becomes your tool of choice.
