Many assumptions the TRP community makes rely on economics - but surprisingly, that is not the case when it comes to value.

Mostly they just state some supply/demand stuff, but that would only explain pricing based on some sort of currencies like sex (or KPIs as in X/10). Or sometimes they refer to some somehow universalistic values like age, fitness, ability to breed, number or sex partners or whatever that make up for these KPIs.

But they won‘t go deeper for example into how real value often is very subjective and differs widely from person to person and the specific circumstances they might be in. Like, someone who, by character, has a hard time letting things go, could have a great time with someone light-hearted and funny, and so on - which might affect the subjective SMV they would ascribe to each other. (Same as a thirsting millionaire out in the desert would be willing to pay absurdly much more money for a glass of water than I most probably would.)

Set aside the fact that I personally believe true love really exists - does anybody else think this TRP thinking is undercomplex? And that value is a inherently subjective term, even though pricing may be not?
