That's an interesting article, but I think it's oversimplifying things, which I suppose makes me a Mistake Theorist. 8)
I prefer to think of people's traits not in simple binary terms, but more in terms of high-dimensional attributes. Think: word2vec.
In practice, I find that people are messy. They have their own interests, and hence there's conflict, but they're also lazy, hence the mistakes. There's plenty of room for several kinds of suboptimal behaviour in their squishy meat brains.
Sometimes I feel like I'm The Man From Earth, watching this craziness unfold from the outside.
