Hobson's choice, Occam's razor, Wheeler's which and the way we decide
Hobson's choice is no choice at all. Take what's offered, or walk away.
Occam's razor is a rule of thumb: the simplest explanation is often the best one.
Wheeler's which teaches us that the answer to "one egg or two?" is usually 'one', while the answer to, "do you want an egg?" is usually zero.
Occam, Hobson and Wheeler were all scholars of something humans are fabulously bad at: deciding among multiple options.
Getting good at this is a skill, something we can do better if we choose to. That might be the first decision.
