I've noticed that most people like to hardcode their moral preferences based on 1st order identifiable traits (skin color, sex, political affilitation) that have no inherent moral value, that way they never reach an 'undecidable' state, a bias is an indispensable cognitive tool for tiebreaking thus curtailing the total mental resources that can be devoted to a single quandary. You often observe autistic people taking very long times to make decisions and not being able to choose between equal choices. It's not to say that any kind of simplification in decision making inherently introduces an inaccuracy, just that normies choose their simplifications based on what's adaptive for their current social environment and compatible with their previous biases. I think the people that developed without the ability to pick a socially adaptive bias are more likely to hold accurate to reality rather than socially acceptable patterns, as long as they're still sufficiently connected to a comprehensible reward system. Kinda half thought out, I'd love to hear what other people think of this.
