- Ma8ee 11y agoNo, we went from one big unwieldy problem to several smaller more manageable problems.
- ashearer 11y agoThat's true of some decisions, but not all. It's a divide-and-conquer strategy. In some situations, ranking would be easier than the decision itself otherwise would be. In others, the method wouldn't necessarily be easier, but it would be more accurate. For weighty decisions, accuracy trumps ease.
