Fallacies
Ive heard Fallacies a few times in trying to describe some aspects of life. Also how convincing it can turn out to be illustrated. Which would turn out to be fallacy of composition. For example in the book it says a team of five nba all stars is the best team in basketball if each of the five players is the best at his position. The fallacy is called composition because the reasoning commits the error of arguing from the true premise that each member of the group as there own certain property. This fallacy stuck out the most to me. Reminds me of how you can be an under dog and win the unthinkable.
