Erich would not sacrifice one of his hands in order to possess the world. Erich is irrationally risking something that is precious to him for something that is of no value. Erich is engaging in irrational behavior by pursuing his quest for the treasure. Erich should not risk his physical well-being regardless of the possible gains that such risks might bring.
Leslie: I' ll show you that your quest for the treasure is irrational. Suppose you found a tablet inscribed, "Whoever touches this tablet will lose a hand, yet will possess the world. " Would you touch it? Erich: Certainly not. Leslie: Just as I expected! It is clear from your answer that your hands are more important to you than possessing the world. But your entire body is necessarily more important to you than your hands. Yet you are ruining your health and harming your body in your quest for a treasure that is much less valuable than the whole world. I rest my case.
Which one of the following most accurately expresses the main conclusion drawn in Leslie's argument?
