What person on this show is going to say "oooh I better take the -EV settlement for 85k 'cause I risk can't missing on the 100k and having to take 75k!"
No one says that. Risk aversion is a moot point in this example. Only in some extreme circumstance is someone going to view taking the 85k as a clear decision to avoid having to settle for only 75k.
Risk aversion becomes a good conversation if someone is being offered 300k rather than flipping a coin for 20k or 1M.
