Lars P. Syll — Truth and rationality

Rational choice theory, like Bayseianism in statistics, is based on informed opinion (rational expectations), but it is opinion none the less. Therefore, it is a heuristic device subject to YMMV rather than being determinative, that is, leading to knowledge rather than opinion or belief. This condition determines the scope of the method.
