Nicely put. I see that sort of "choice affecting choices" you describe leveraged/manipulated a lot in tech, to "funnel" people into worlds with ever smaller horizons. Every product has an inbuilt con or trick that seems out to get you. It's essence is anti-choice masquerading as forms of economic freedom.

How to remain conscious of that? It's tiring. Like being in a jungle surrounded by predators.
