Imagine two people, Alice and Bob, share the goal of deadlifting X lbs. Alice and Bob are equally “interested and successful at achieving” all their other goals besides deadlifting X lbs. Bob is stronger than Alice. Therefore, he is more likely to be able to deadlift X lbs. Can we thereby conclude that Bob is more rational than Alice?
No. It is incredibly weak evidence that Bob is more rational than Alice.
