unless the global maximum is much higher, how much can be
benefit from moving from the local max ?
in some way shape or form, I hear argument over and over - and from intelligent people.
We see this kind of risk-averse behavior in social situations where nobody wants to take the "hit" of moving from their current strategy.
or there many have been a time, when we identified the maximum and the entire landscape has changed around them, so the strategy is no longer optimal. this is another real situation.
also, "simulated annealing" seems to be a bit of a misnomer for this type of mixed strategy.
