I've seen this
Brave people who eventually survive are often on a boat that's headed in the wrong direction and outsiders looking in just see it as bravery
In reality that's just a better move for them when compared to do something else
Imagine you're ultra rich, super famous, etc.
What would you think if someone told you were a coward for not going naked on the streets begging with no armed guards in front of millions of people?
People would fucking torture you and beg you for money
Now imagine you're homeless and you finally decide to go beg naked on the streets
Do you see the difference?
One is Worse to Better situation and the other one is Better to Worse
The underpriviledged often praise bravery because for them it always meant a better position than they were before, but this is detrimental once you're in a better position than the one promised and often people don't play these things out in their heads what's gonna happen later because they constanly shame themselves for being "a coward" and they delude themselves thinking the outcomes would be different
Imagine this rich guy had done what I described, what would make him? Thinking the outcomes would be different. You need a level of self confidence and assurance and to really think it through
