Commitment Model Dimension
A fast decision is not always a clear one because velocity may come from urgency, fatigue, fear, or convenience rather than from sufficient contact with reality.
Fast decisions sometimes deserve trust. Many do not.
The mistake is assuming that quick closure proves clear sight. Sometimes speed reflects mastery. Sometimes it reflects compression, simplification, or the desire to stop carrying ambiguity.
A decision should not be trusted only because it arrived fast. It should be trusted because the right parts of the loop actually had enough room to operate.
