Personally I don't think you are given any new information in the Monty Hall problem that's worth anything. You always knew there was a 100% chance that one of the doors in that set has a goat behind it, which door that is is pretty much irrelevant.

Or to put it another way how many people would stick with their chosen door if instead of opening a door and showing a goat they were simply asked "would you like to stick with your current choice of door, or switch and take the best result from the other doors?"
