preamble: I think game theory is super useful and applicable.

It's when people hear an analysis and remember experiences in their past where, had they applied that same analysis, they would have been completely wrong and maybe even achieved a much worse outcome for themselves.

Another take is that some situations have chaos-like properties when approximation analysis is applied to them. The diameter of a ball isn't going to explode several orders of magnitude wrong and into negative space.
