yeah. its equivalent to trump's business deals and tactics. you make an outrageous offer. the opponent says no. then you offer the REAL offer, the one you wanted all along or expected. the opponent will think they are in control and accept it.

pricing too. model 2024 sells for 2,000usd. then you announce the new 2025 model that is almost same as the old model and that it will sell for 5,000usd. there will be backlash, then you reduce it to 3,000usd. majority will buy because "at least its not 5,000usd". it works so much in consumerism.
