Agree the animal metaphor doesn’t help very well. I have some stereotype for fox (cunningness, slyness, trickster etc...), but draw a blank for hedgehog.
As to whether the dichotomy is real, well I think it’s a useful model to question one’s judgement. A better question would be is it more useful than say “system1 vs system2 ” model (or pick another model.).
