In some ways it doesn't even matter if we are biased and suffer for it.
It might be that our brains only have enough processing power to make sure we don't seriously disadvantage ourselves by causing driving accidents, tripping over, not stabbing ourselves with knives or committing social faux pas. Anything left over for solving psychologists games has to be considered a bonus.
