    Supports→If players in a game reach the (C,C) equilibrium under conditions where (C,C) and (D,D) are both Nash Equilibria, the correct description is that the Prisoner's Dilemma was the wrong model of their situation, not that they played non-Nash Equilibrium strategies in a Prisoner's Dilemma.

    The game in question has two Nash Equilibria: (C,C) and (D,D).

    This is no longer a PD; it is an Assurance game, which has two NE at (C,C) and (D,D), with the former being Pareto superior to the latter. Thus if the players find this equilibrium, we should not say that they have played non-NE strategies in a PD. Rather, we should say that the PD was the wrong model of their situation.
