People spend too much time on decisions with equally satisfying outcomes
The irrationality presumes:1. That the decision-making activity itself is wasteful.
2. That the decision-making time would, if not consumed by decision making, be spent elsewhere in a more productive manner.These are hardly safe assumptions. The discussion itself can be enjoyable. The faster decision making can create less certainty in the decision and encourage regret, or create conflict with others. The time gained may not be spent in any productive manner but instead be wasted elsewhere.
