I believe my article above did not convey the idea that we should always go by System 2, as that is not a wise move for the reasons I outlined above. I do strongly believe that we should use System 2 thinking to examine the parts of ourselves that have strong desires but don't know how to express them, evaluate whether these desires are beneficial to oneself, and change those parts that are not beneficial, for instance using Dark Arts of Rationality on oneself.
The Elephant and Rider model I used above corresponds to previous discussions on LW about this topic, do you disagree with those discussions?
I don't think you understand what I'm getting at. You seem to still be positing that System 2 is the "adult" that will discard parts of System 1 when they are not to the advantage of goals System 2 has.
