Even with a scout mentality there is the problem of modeling the deck of alternative scenarios that arise from uncertainty in a map. The tendency to take imputed values for a set of unknown variables is a practical cognitive resource limitation that one can acknowledge or fail to acknowledge. To challenge a person’s gut feeling -- all those imputed values -- and to observe the exasperation (even perceived persecution) that may result from the challenge is how I distinguish scouts from soldiers. There are surely some tactical benefits to soldiers running toward the enemy with their bayonets to not spend a lot of time reflecting on how confident they are that the person they are running toward is their enemy.

Yeah, capsaicin might be easier, but this will do just fine to get me agitated. Where's my soapbox.
