Amusing anecdote: I once tried to give my mother intuition behind Monte Hall with a process similar to this. She didn’t quite get it, so I played the game with her a few times. Unfortunately, she won more often when she stayed than when she switched (n ~= 10), and decided that I was misremembering. A lesson was learned, but not by the person I had intended.
