This is insanely good, goes way farther than tit-for-tat. Required playing/reading for anyone who wants to talk about the prisoner's dilemma.

The interesting conclusion is that, given a certain level of miscommunication, there is only 1 viable strategy: Copykitten for low miscommunication, and Always Cheat for high miscommunications. If you yourself use any other strategy, you are literally wrong. And if your evaluation of the miscommunication is wrong, then you are also wrong.

I think it's very obvious which strategy is correct in the vast majority of interactions and society as a whole. The other strategy only works in highly controlled, isolated lines of communication (MSM propaganda etc).
