I think of this as the "If one beer is good, ten beers must be even better!" fallacy. It probably has a formal name that I won't look up right now.

- haswell 5y agoI’m not exactly sure if this is formally defined, but at the very least it seems like black and white thinking, e.g. more = good, less = bad, therefore more + more must be good too. It ignores the nuance of what happens as the quantity grows. If I stay awake for two extra hours, I can get more done in a day. Conclusion: I’ll stay up 24 hours/day for maximum efficiency.
