As I understand it, the actual problem in this area is not so much that “satisficers want to become maximisers”—but rather that a simple and effective means of satisficing fairly often involves constructing a maximising resource-gathering minion. Then after the satisficer is satisfied, the minion(s) may continue unsupervised—unless care is taken. I discussed this issue in my 2009 essay on the topic.
