IDK if simplicity is really the go-to judgment process for learning from people like this. I mean if you really want to chase that argument--it's simpler than even that. He's human! Therefore he does stupid human things. He's only human after all! (ad infinitum)
Imagine though, if SBF had a reasonable, nuanced opportunity to understand his blind spots long before he got into business.
I've coached people who think just like SBF, discussed the same blind spots, and most of those people were grateful to reach a new understanding. But you'd never get that far if you said, "you have the mindset of a trust fund kid, end of story."
So, that's definitely a thing, to be able to un-simplify a broad generalization, and turn that into problem-solving leverage where others may fear to wade into details.
