    It’s probably something to do with the user feeling like they have a choice or something, even if it’s a meaningless choice.

    Like when at work and you present a bad idea next to the idea you want people to pick so they feel included in the decision process.

      This is a risky tactic, specially if the bad idea sounds compelling enough to dim-witted people
