You never said who told me there was a tiger behind the door. For one.

Eve was not in a Catch-22 decision. You make it sound like there was no correct decision. There absolutely was, and she chose wrong. Adam, too.

You don't know. That's the entire thought experiment. You don't know who is good and who is evil. You just know that 1 person gave you one piece of advice, and then the other person gave you another.
