This example seem like a lesson for bob on how to not get screwed by Alice’s seemingly higher leverage by focusing on what is actually at stake to negotiate, the 6 extra slices. And also recognize Alice does not actually have more leverage just because the fallback is to her advantage, she would still have lost out up to 6 slices, making any type of deal would be better for her.
