Why not? Diffusion of choice is a pretty well documented phenomena. Example - you're at a party and you're offered ice cream - chocolate or vanilla. Easy decision every time, and you're happy with it. But you're offered one of 37 flavors, maybe you take 5 minutes to think about it, or you worry the whole time you picked the wrong one, maybe you never pick because you can't decide, etc

I don't see why you can't extrapolate that to larger issues on a larger scale - what career, who to marry, what to believe, etc etc


I didn't watch the video

I heard that on TV once. False. I want cookies and cream or vanilla. I won't worry about making the right decision. I like those. Boom. I'm done and eating ice cream
