I'm curious about why you think I'm setting up a straw man. The heuristics and biases literature in psychology seems to focus on the costs of heuristic, but not on its potential. I illustrated this point with the quote from Tversky and Kahneman: "in general, these heuristics are quite useful, but sometimes they lead to severe and systematic errors." When I searched Overcoming Bias about heuristic, which I linked to in my post, it is mainly discussed the same way it is discussed in the psychological literature. Perhaps computer science, AI research, and mathematics take a more positive view of heuristic than psychology does.
