Great read! Really enjoyed the addition of the empathy element to the standard prisoner's dilemma.

Also, I second the first part on that economics is often perceived as extremely rational. Funnily enough, one of my recent posts focused on the fact that in cooperative games, it appears people do not know how people will react in equilibrium leading to 'irrational' outcomes.
