Oh, "heuristics", otherwise known as "prejudice"! The main difference in connotation being that heuristics are changed in the face of enough contrary evidence, while prejudices... aren't.
Of course prejudices can be changed, at which point they become postjudices.
No, they become "judgements". I too wish the lnguage obeyed the rules of etymology, but life is not so easy.
