Primes

• Diminishing Incremental Gains
  • Failure mode: a specific functional form (e.g., square-root, log, power) is assumed without empirical validation, producing biased stopping-point estimates or extrapolation errors, a hazard Anderson (1982) flagged in his ACT-based account of skill acquisition where production-rule compilation produces concave but not strictly power-law gains.
