Buridan's Ass

Paradox
Choice cannot be determined by reasoned preference alone.

Resolution
This is a falsidical paradox.

The reasoning has two weak points:


 * $(1): \quad$ It is practically and realisatically impossible to design a system in which such perfect equality can exist.


 * $(2): \quad$ Even if it is possible to create a system whereby it is not possible to make such an example of perfect equality, there are other ways of making choices.


 * The traditional technique for making such an arbitrary decision is just to toss a coin.
