Possible confusion to readers
edit[Copied from Talk:Marginal utility.]
The openning sentence of this article may be confusing to some readers. As an introductory decription the one found at [1] is an example of a more easily understood definition. [Unsigned comment by Axiomsofchoice]
- That simpler definition is not correct as a generalized statement. It assumes that utility may be measured by satisfaction. Many marginalists assumed just that, but the article is careful to distinguish this conception as a special case. A general principle is at play here: Confusion may result from over-simplification. —SlamDiego 04:28, 22 May 2007 (UTC)
