"An eye for an eye" is not the Golden Rule!

But in game theory at least, tit-for-tat is a pretty successful strategy.
It sort of is, if you think of it as "don't poke out other people's eyes if you don't want them to poke yours out".
The "do not do...what you would not wish done" variant is actually called the Silver Rule, no joke.
