I don’t care enough about basketball to follow that object-level analysis. I do appreciate that the thought experiment of doing so seems to indicate that you believe there IS some objective thing (the inputs or the weighting) that you or they are incorrect about.
I think that is what I was pointing at, and in my mind dissolves our disagreement. I was probably over-weighting your line
But despite that being my guess, I still wouldn’t say that I agree with Taylor. There’s this voice inside me that wants to utter “I think you’re wrong, Ben”.
I took this to mean that you cognitively preferred your model, even though it differed from theirs. After our discussion, you may have only meant that your instincts are probably wrong, and they’re likely more correct than your feelings.
edit: which I guess means I should ask more directly—if you believe there is a more correct answer than yours, why don’t you want to hone your instincts and change your feelings?

Gotcha. Yeah with that line I indeed meant that I have more trust in Taylor’s judgement than my own instincts.
