I don’t think it’s quite necessary for people to even be consciously aware of Occam’s Razor. The right predictions will eventually win out because there will exist an economic profit somewhere which will be exploited. If you can think of an area which is overrun with market inefficiencies due to something related to this post, please let me know and I will be sure to grab whatever I can of the economic profits while they last.
OK, I am coming in way late, but I can tell you that all of you are wrong. Occam’ s razor theory is based on observations of human behavior over a long period of time. Some Humans want to attribute mystical or supernatural significance to any event out of the ordinary that occurs in their lives. Advanced brains like yourselves seek to apply equations and theorems that reduce life events to an equation. Sometimes shit happens that just can’t or won’t fit into anyone’s strongly held beliefs or theories. Live life, stop trying to use math or what the fuck ever to explain it!
