Jung isn't simply saying lazy people take shortcuts—he's identifying judgment as the *consequence* of avoiding thought's genuine difficulty. True thinking demands we sit with ambiguity and resist our mind's impulse toward quick categorization; judging, by contrast, offers the false comfort of closure. You see this daily when someone dismisses an entire profession or belief system in a sentence rather than wrestling with its actual complexity, and walks away feeling they've understood something. The uncomfortable part of Jung's observation is that we're all susceptible to this trade-off, especially when the stakes feel high or the subject unfamiliar.
