> Monocausal determinism is an illusion, and largely does not exist outside of computer debugging. I work in trading with a lot of software engineers, and one thing I noticed is that these cannot reason about uncertainty if their lives depended on it. Their way to approach any problem is like you debug code: there must be a specific code path that was followed that led to that outcome. But markets aren't like this, and things happen for no reason, or are better modelled as if happening for no reason. This is also the reason why I don't really think "software engineers" are real engineers, because real engineers can reason about uncertainty. You are what you do, I think it's expected that if you spend your life reasoning in one framework, atrophies your practice at any other framework.
