[Vitalik Discusses the Balance Between 'Principle-Driven' and 'Data-Driven' Decision Making] Golden Finance reports that Ethereum co-founder Vitalik explores the decision-making models of 'principle-driven' and 'data-driven' in his latest article. He points out that principles not only influence individual cognition but also serve as a social construct for community coordination, aiding in division of labor and goal focus. However, excessive rigidity may deviate from the original intent. He suggests adopting a balanced approach of 'data-driven choice of principles' and 'principles prioritized over ideology' to enhance the efficiency of individual and collective decision-making, and to prevent extremism or over-reliance on elite leadership.
