Sure, but asking the rational decision to make when there is literally no decision to make is not a well formed question.
You use an invalid argument to argue for a correct conclusion. It doesn't generally follow that something that can't be improved is not worth "worrying about", at least in the sense of being a useful piece of knowledge to pay attention to.
It's a definitional dispute, mostly caused by my original failure to specific that I meant mental processes in this comment.
It's all irrelevant to my point, which is a self-contained criticism of a particular argument you've made in this comment and doesn't depend on the purpose of that argument.
(Your quoting someone else's writing without clarification, in a reply to my comment, is unnecessarily confusing...)
