I cannot help you to be less wrong if you categorically rely on intuition about what is possible and what is not.
I wish I had something better to base my beliefs on than my intuitions, but I do not. My belief in modus ponens, my belief that 1+1=2, my belief that me observing gravity in the past makes me likely to observe it in the future, my belief that if views are in logical contradiction they cannot both be true—all this is (the way I think of it) grounded in intuition.
Some of my intuitions I regard as much more strong/robust than others.
When my intuitions come into conflict, they have to fight it out.

Thanks for discussion.
