Which evolves through experience! They eat when food is available / presented. Then when they get hooked or shot they try to swim away. The survivors learn to be leery next time the situations present itself, imagine if they could read about all the ways possible they could get hooked and suddenly they will begin to develop deductibility instincts and then actually make decisions to swim away before they take the bait... finickiness.

We have an animal instinct brain too, and the ptw depend on us acting like a herd of dumb animals when they spring their traps, and you know what? We have done exactly that in the past. Some of us have begun to realize (often through the ptw psycho babble counseling to respond vs react) that we do have choices, and we don't have to react in a perceived emergency, but we can make calculated responses. And those calculated responses can no longer be measured by the ptw because we do not give them any more power!!!

Even dumb animals in a herd will learn to avoid the "bad" water hole if the hunter does the same thing over and over and they keep seeing their friends mowed down when going to "that" place.

Sounds like the ptw can become extinct when no one goes to that watering hole anymore!
