I'm trying to understand the difference between your statement and "1 is not equal 2, but what if it were?" and failing.
"1 is not equal 2, but what if it were?" = what if I could travel faster than the speed of light.
Off the equilibrium path = what if I were to burn a dollar.
Or things I can't do vs things I don't want to do.
In my mind "I'm the type of person who will always cooperate" means that there is no difference between the two in this case. Maybe you use a different definition of "always"?
I always cooperate because doing so maximizes my utility since it is better than all the alternatives. I always go slower than the speed of light because I have no alternatives.
