You participate in a game show where you must choose between 3 doors. Behind 2 doors is a goat, but behind 1 door is a car. You pick a door, say door no. 1, but before you open the door, the host opens another door, say door no. 3, which has the car behind it. "Oops," says the host.
You lose.
Yup.
If everything is fake and gay, it doesn't matter if you switch or not, the funniest outcome will happen, if someone has their hand in it. i.e., you switch, and the car was "always" behind the door you initially chose. Oops, you lost!
It's also pointless, though, because if everything is in flux, your choice doesn't matter. So the fixed version is the only one that really makes sense, if the "problem" is expected to be solved.
It could be worse. You could open a door and there be 3 doors behind it.
It doesn't have to be 'fake and gay'.
Typically in regulated gambling, like with slots, they tell you your odds of winning. Slot machine doesn't know what the roll will be before you roll it.
Same principle. The game show may give all contestants a 50/50 chance of winning regardless of what doors they pick.
In which case it doesn't matter. The only way the problem makes sense is if the prizes are already fixed.
It's a game show. In what way does giving out free cars make sense other than as entertainment?
It's a logic problem. Ironically, it doesn't have to make sense. It's a fake scenario. And in that fake scenario, you have a car behind one door, goats/nothing behind the other two doors. That's the scenario.
