I do not understand where people are getting confused.

I just told you.

If you want to understand where people are getting confused, perhaps you should listen to them.

The preference should be too what extent it would make the same decisions you would.

Huh? First, why would I need a system to make the same decisions I'm going to make by default? Second, who is that "you"? For particular values of "you", building a system that replicates the preferences of that specific individual is going to be a really bad idea.
