#not predictive value

[floofshy]

many superstitions can be treated as a game of chance where "good luck" is winning and "bad luck" is losing, rather than as a predictive tool. The augury is a game overlayed over birdwatching where you can win or lose depending on where you see birds.

Alternative, you can transform games of chance into superstitions, and judge lottery winners for superstitiously thinking that winning gives them good luck.
