is the best way not the extremes but extreme-adjacent?
A lot of advice usually directs you towards one extreme on a sliding scale as the best way? Sure, but I feel it’s context dependent - large or small.
The middle ground is mediocrity, average, undecided, not moving. So that’s a no. What’s the sweet spot for most things, could it be extreme-adjacent?
What's the term economists use? It's this for sure.
Formulas work only till the rules are the same, the rules change when everyone follows the formula, which means the formula doesn't exist anymore it's become the rules of a new game.
Not a great explanation, bad analogies. Will refine when more learned I am
