Force a better group decision by making a bad choice first

[rfarley04]

My wife and I always struggle with the "where to eat" loop. Our solution is to have one person has to pick three options, then the other picks from that list.

It narrows the scope of the decision for both people (I only have to pick three or I only have to pick from this list), and ensures that everyone has skin in the final call

I'm thinking of adopting a similar policy in our house. Already getting a lot of utility from the "how much do you care?" system https://adam.whittingham.dev/posts/how-much-do-you-care.html Hoping they'll work well in combination
