Does human intuition need to be explained, or just mapped?
Explaining intuitions gives insight into whether they are useful. And yes even in this case I do leave the possibility open that all ursury is bad for reasons I don’t yet understand despite the consensus among economists on it.
But your question is actually a poignant one since it is one we should have clearly answered at nearly any step of the entire LessWrong project of building up human rationality, yet I don’t recall us attempting to do so.
