I don’t mean to be disrespectful to you, since you’ve asked a good question, but I didn’t value reading it enough to go back and identify which parts over reached. If you a pressing enough reason, I can reconsider. Alternatively, just check out some of the original papers and see what you think yourself.
Edit 1: I might add, that there are alternative ways of taking the outside view. Amongst them is setting accuracy oriented goals to counter emotionally motivated reasoning
