Weight emotional data more heavily in domains where you have extensive practice with clear feedback, and weight analytical data more heavily in novel domains with irregular feedback, because expert intuition requires both environmental regularity and practice to develop validity.

Why This Is a Principle

Directly derives from Valid Intuition Requires Stable Regularities and Feedback (expert intuition validity conditions), Expertise Through Deliberate Practice (expertise requires deliberate practice), and Expertise as Domain-Specific Schema Organization (expertise is domain-specific). Prescribes domain-dependent weighting based on axioms about when emotional pattern-recognition is reliable.
