Are we sure we are the only ones with asymmetrical information truly curious about a Brand New concept you introduced me to

@Rus-T-Balls I am NOT sure. I actually meant to end that statement with a question mark. But it is an interesting thought experiment to determine the difference in our relationship with asymmetric information, and that of other species.

Sure, imperfect information (or information bottlenecks) almost certainly affect animals both in nature and experimentally. That, I think, we can easily accept. However, I would question whether or not other species (flora or fauna) have the extra-instinctual ability to:

1. recognize that asymmetric information plays a role, before or after the fact.

2. reassess the pre-valuation of their opportunity costs with the understanding that imperfect information exists.

3. change future behavior based on experiential learning as to "what might have been" e.g. a sunflower, which in the past has failed to absolutely maximize solar intake due to unrecognized and potentially pseudo-consistent hindrances, "planning" its solar tracking activities consistent with a roughly intuitive probability function.

I think it may be less that we are the only species to suffer from asymmetrical information, and more that we automatically adjust our observable reaction to potential costs (of diverse perceived probabilities) under varying levels of recognition that we don't actually know everything.
