Did anyone think to ask "who's hungrier?"


As you say, Alice is not in desperate need of pizza, so she’ll just wait for a deal that gives her the most. The power to say no to deals is the true advantage of greater wealth.


You assume Alice isn't the hungrier of the two and cares little for Bob's hunger, which sort of outlines my point: give more to who's hungrier.
