Yeah aside from others pointing out that in this particular story (the image) the tortoise cheated, the real motto of this fable isn’t slow and steady wins the race. It’s the problem of small samples sizes. Repeat the race 100x and the bunny wins most of those. But that’s not surprising. So we focus on the surprising one off result.

The true lesson is to repeat experiments and see what the average is if you want to learn the beta strategy (or find the best players).
