I was thinking about summaries-- that would help a lot. It might also be possible to choose biases with more intuitive names, like the sunk cost fallacy.
Yeah... scope insensitivity is probably the best from the list, since it sounds intuitive but isn't commonly known like the sunk cost fallacy. Then again, completely new ones would make people more curious, and as long as there were summaries, they probably wouldn't be turned off by the unfamiliar names.
