The term doesn’t quite track for me. What’s protocolish about these regrets? Feels like just regular regrets that happen to relate to decisions constrained by protocols. One possible useful narrowing might be when a decision has lots of configuration decisions cascading from the first one. Like picking S-Corp over LLC has lots of dumb consequences on autopilot. Ie a decision that has hidden configuration consequences in the future that unfold mechanically on autopilot that you can’t later override or steer as much as you expected.
hmm I see what you mean, I was thinking about how in some of those cases it’s easy to become unaware of the fact that you are following a protocol or that you have agency over the protocol, like in the case of TSA, there is global entry and precheck etc that people forget are options until they get to the airport.
