Primes¶
- Mandatory vs. Default Norms
- This creates a long-running normative dispute: Conly (2013) argues that systematic cognitive limitations justify "coercive paternalism" that overrides consensual choices for the chooser's own good, while Hausman and Welch (2010) and Sugden (2008) counter that even soft, default-based nudges raise serious autonomy concerns and that incoherent or mutable preferences do not, by themselves, license third-party override.
This sourceArgues that systematic cognitive limitations document by behavioral economics justify mandatory ("coercive paternalist") rules that override consensual choices for the chooser's own welfare—the strongest defense of mandatory-floor architecture against autonomy objections.

Verification¶
Does it exist? Not checked yet. This entry carries no identifier to resolve. It was extracted from the citation as written in the article, normalized, and deduplicated against the rest of the registry.
Does it back the claim? Not recorded. The single citation of this work carries no recorded support check.
Support is checked per citation rather than per work — the same source can be cited soundly in one article and wrongly in another. Per-citation recording began recently, so a citation with no recorded check is a gap in the record rather than evidence it went unchecked.
