It is the same way that Vilfredo Pareto is almost only known for the 80/20 rule. One of the deepest thinkers ever about society and he is known for the most boring of his ideas. Most things can be explained with this other idea of Pareto that humans are not rational but rationalizers. Most human action/thought is kind of dumb and non-rational and then we invent rational explanations after the fact. Paint a varnish of rationality after the fact on non-rational behavior in Pareto's words.
