Presumably, Gamma and Omega have a less biased world-view in general and model of us specifically than non-trained humans do of elk. Humans have been known to be surprised at e.g. animal altruism directed at species members or humans.
I hope for the sake of all Omega-based arguments that Omega is assumed to be less biased than us.
