Agreed, trash.

Makes perfect sense in an environment where friction is sufficient to slow down most motion. It's like bashing Newton for not mentioning the relativistic effects.

I don't even quite understand how I should envision that.

Ideally. Kinda breaks down when subjective value doesn't match objective (average) value. Which is hard to avoid, given that subjective value depends on the environment and the situation heavily.

If anything, about ¼ of what you mentioned is just an approximation/primitive version of the way things work.
