hedgehogs prefer simplicity. They don’t want to clutter up their analysis with information. They want to use the
minimum amount of information necessary to produce an answer. They also demand clarity. They don’t want
things vague and fuzzy; they want to push the analysis until they get clarity. And of course, if you do that, you’re
going to be increasingly confident that you have the correct answer. And they are. They are very confident. You
can see it in the language that they use. Hedgehogs are much more likely to say something like, „It is certain“,
„Impossible, this will never happen“, or „It will/won’t happen“. Notice that there’s no probability there. It’s just, „It
will“, or „It won’t“.
From Dan Gardner in the text Turning Future Babble Into Real Foresight (2014)
