The "fox vs hedgehog" metaphor is incredibly confusing. I keep thinking "fox = hunter = single-minded on one target" vs "hedgehog = a thousand spikes" (also, "hedging" feels like the opposite of single-goal focus), and then I check and apparently it's the other way around.

The trick is to remember their attack and defense behaviors. Hedgehogs curl up into a ball with spikes out. Foxes keep darting around their target trying to find an attack vector. A mnemonic image is a rolled up hedgehog with a fox darting around it.

I have a whole theory of it, as a 2x2 extension of Isaiah Berlin theory into a 4-archetype one that includes cactuses and weasels Also, I have a 2x2 completion
