| Mar 6, 2013 at 14:15 | comment | added | bill_080 | I don't think it's a devaluation of human intuition. It's simply noise. "Intuition" of noise is just more noise (no different than flipping a coin). Are you willing to pay someone to sit around and flip a coin? | |

| Mar 6, 2013 at 0:59 | comment | added | bill_080 | I'm assuming that you're asking about a non-retail transaction. Unless something special is taking place, there's no need for a human to be involved in the trade. The trade is already "mostly noise", so allowing a human to "decide" something raises the noise level, making things worse. | |
