I am not sure LW offers evidence for that conclusion, and I don’t think that conclusion is correct. Caplan’s “rational irrationality”(link) gives evidence (in the form of theory) for the narrower idea that people’s beliefs that don’t have strong causal influences on their lives and do offer psychological rewards are suspect.
