Apparently, this (or the intent of this) requires an explanation. This is a comment on the factuality of statements like, "Except that Samuel wants to keep his place," and a reminder that game theory is an interesting thought experiment, but not an accurate description of human social behavior. There's nothing in the rules or the setup of a "game" that would determine moves as actually observed and about anything may happen. Including even worse outcomes than pictured here. At best, it describes an inherent tendency.
