Meanwhile I find it petty to complain about the small price of a single tweet. I don’t understand what or how it’s a “game theory mechanic.”

Is it also a manipulative tactic for a store to impose the “Pay $1 to unlock a candy bar” mechanic on you? I bet you use the same dark mechanic on your employer.

I'm a prospect that explained how the journey disinterested me from the product. I provided specific examples along with my best understanding of why I felt that way. This is one of the things that HN was founded on.
I'm asserting that you were only backsplaining something you couldn't be fucked to download and read regardless. :)
Did you miss the part where I said I was prospect? That means a potential customer that was clearly interested in the book, but changed his mind. The author screwed up a chance to convert me and many other customers.
