I saw an interesting perspective on the Monty Hall problem from judegomila earlier this month -

"Your brain will compute monty hall problem in fast casual causal mode AND/OR compute slow mode formally for the exact answer. Probability predictions that accurately map reduce to efficient intuitive representations in our brain dictate direction in our evolutionary biology."

"[since] we don't solve the monty hall problem effectively with our intuition, an evolving life form would be poor at resource collection from such problem sets without knowledge of axiom representation and formal probability."
