Don't most people do this? Especially the kind of people here on Hacker News? I have like 10 plaid shirts, and 4 pairs of dark blue jeans and every day i pick one of each and wear it. The big advantage of my system is that I don't look like a weirdo because I wear an identical outfit every day.

I have lots of shirts and pants but just take from the bottom of the pile, put back on the top of the pile. Or left of the closet, put back on the right of the closet. I don't look like I have only one outfit but never obsess over what to wear.

It also sounds kind of silly as decisions take only as much brain power as you put into them. Does Zuck eat only one kind of food ever? (otherwise he'd have to choose :O). Does he only have one of everything? Seems unlikely...

It seems much more likely to concern having a signature look (aka Jobs) and to minimize paparazzi since all the pictures look the same and are therefore less valuable.

Yeah, same here. Just don't care which shirt I pick out, but have some number of different ones. I don't buy that having only identical clothes really makes a big difference here, but maybe for some people?
