>I'm not sure how willingness to take risks ties with not treating interactions as zero-sum games.
Risk produces "winners" and "losers", an implicit hierarchy, the equalist considers any such relationship to be zero-sum, no matter what you tell them, they think it's evil that someone is above someone else in some regard, whether it be stock trades, IQ tests, parental figures, rivals, or mentors.
> Why would gamblers expect to play a zero-sum game less than people dealing with society?
I might not have been clear, but what I was trying to convey is that an equalist see's anything that produces unequal outcomes as zero-sum. To a risk-taker, I don't think there's such a thing as a truly zero-sum game. If they try to court a lady and she's taken by someone else instead, then they can move forward without regret, which they would've been burdened with otherwise.
>so the attitude a risk-taker would take on social interactions seems disjointed from taking risks in itself and more on other personal beliefs.
In general someone who's risk-averse struggles with social interaction. For example, approaching a stranger to ask for directions carries some amount of risk, the interaction may not end pleasantly, but you could also ask a pretty disguised Tengu and she might invite you to tea. You can apply this to any sort of interaction you have with your boss, someone hogging gym equipment, competitions, and professional correspondences. One of the most beneficial things I've learned in life is that many high-functioning professionals have emails and tend to answer them, but even if it was just some random guy who had a blog about his software projects, I felt some intrepidation reaching out, because that person was 'above me'. Having taken that risk of looking foolish anyway, my watermark for what constitutes as 'risky' is higher, I've learned more about the world.
Anyway. Something this calls to mind is that there seems to be a lot of love stories for Aya, but none that involve describing the formal courting process of a Tengu, which I imagined is involved and rigorous, since you'd have a lower standing. Entering a rigid society like the Tengu would be a risk all it's own.
