Rather than speculate on alternative meanings, I'm just going to take the statement literally for now unless they show up to correct me.

- taeric 8y agoCertainly fair. I've just taken, quite heavily lately, to the principal of charity. To that end, the most upvoted direct response to you is a better worded version of what I was getting at. Sunken costs and changing where you are spending your money is my speculation on why things went the way they did. I don't have a solid answer for why this is so, though. At least, not one that generalizes. To repeat what I think was the heart of your initial question: Why do people form strong beliefs? That is a very good question that I don't think anyone has a solid answer on. Just more beliefs that have strong proponents. :)
