It’s on TvTropes? I just assumed “less stigmatised way of saying tantrum” based off context.
I guessed at the meaning but it sounded like a specific reference to me, TVTropes is the first hit on Google.
The thing is that these triggers exist only for the purpose of changing the world. The most significant emotions are a way to have a credible precomittment to do a mutually destructive thing if the other(s) do(es) not comply. For example, by damaging one’s own body with excess adrenalin and cortisol while causing similar distress to those who defected in your constructed game.
True, the tactic can also backfire however. I respond badly to such tactics, presumably partially an evolved defense to their widespread use.

Absolutely, and so do I. In fact I am myself emotionally precommitted to not be swayed by the implied threat of ‘berzerk buttons’ even though the immediate payoff structure may make submission have a lesser penalty to me than the mutually destructive punishment. This seems to work for me on net.
