Why we cite it

The primary behind `kla01`. That knowledge file rested five bullets on `cdb02` — Kahneman’s 2011 trade book Thinking, Fast and Slow — and cited no primary at all. Under X0BHR7’s thesis the book was a conduit: the loss-aversion claim is this paper’s, published 32 years earlier, and this is the citation that should always have carried it. Landing it retires a one-remove citation and is one reason `cdb02` need not be acquired for that claim.
