These distortions are not noise reducible by institutional design but are constitutive features of human cognition, making 'closer resemblance' to economic agents under stable rules an empirically false prediction.

Institutional design(as used in explaining why groups act differently): The deliberate structuring and rules of organizations and systems (like laws, governments, or procedures) to shape how people behave.
constitutive features(as used in philosophy and cognitive science): Essential, built-in characteristics that are fundamental to something's nature—not accidents or bugs, but core parts of what something is.
distortions(as used in cognitive science and economics): Errors or inaccuracies in how we perceive or think about reality—in this case, systematic mistakes in human thinking that can't be fixed just by creating better rules or organizations.
economic agents(Used to distinguish idealized rational actors in economic models from real biological or human individuals.): The maximizing units identified by economic theory, characterized by unchanging preference fields.
