text: Another reason for seeking multiple opinions is to hear other people's opinions on how the problem should be solved. For example you are going dress shopping for Prom. You pick out a couple of dresses and try them on. You pick out your top two and ask your friends which one they prefer. Some picked the Red one and some picked the Purple one. You're torn on which one to get, but hearing other people's opinions helped you pick. Finally you decide to get the Red one because it was picked the most. Just listening to what other people have to say and the things they point out that you didn't notice help you make a better choice.
