Because the consequences of assuming a woman does not follow the Team Red model when she does are so terrible, a man is better off provisionally assuming that all women operate under the Team Red model.

The consequences you linked to are exactly the same for assuming a woman follows the Team Red model when in fact she does not.

Refusing to marry a woman who wouldn't divorce you anyway? I can see that consequences of doing that are also bad, but “exactly the same” sounds like a stretch.

No, failing to sustain a satisfying relationship because you are giving your wife what you assume she should want, except that she actually doesn't.
