This post that you have excreted has essentially zero content. You restate the core idea behind the representativeness heuristic repeatedly, and baldly assert that there are good reasons for people having the intuitions that they do, that people are “using valuable real life skills” when they give incorrect answers to questions. No ones arguing that it hasn’t been an evolutionarily useful heuristic, just that it happens to be incorrect from time to time. I cannot figure out where in your post you actually made an argument that the conjunction fallacy “doesn’t exist”, and I am overjoyed that you no longer have the karma to make top-level posts.
