If you were to try this, you would instead be irrational in a consistent way described by well-known cognitive biases, and therefore unusually easy to manipulate.
Depends on what I’m trying to get them to do, and how well I understand the framework of their irrationality. In many cases, I find them highly manipulable; in other cases, not at all.
How manipulable do you find the determinedly irrational in practice?
Extremely. But when people are already acting against their own interests it is sometimes more convenient to exploit their current practice without trying to influence them significantly.

How manipulable do you find the determinedly irrational in practice?
Mostly I just find them deeply painful and try to avoid dealing with them except by occasionally poking them with sticks.
