It's not that different, when a human proposes a better definition vis-a-vis a competing one for example, they would defend this by certain desiderata. Often a mathematician or physicist will use their intuition to speed up the naive b

The most bothering aspect is that governments always hide behind a curtain of plausible deniability: "well you can't accuse us of not possessing a crystal ball to predict the future", except governments don't need crysta

Making predictions is also a task. Whenever we reason, we are not neurotically bruteforcing the possibilities (although sometimes we do, like proof by exhaustion ), usually we make predictions heuristically of which assumptions or theorems

So you were working 10 x 1 hour = 10 hours before. And then you were doing 100 x 10 minutes = 100 / 6 hours = ~16 hours & 40 minutes.
