Is game theory as insightful as it's made out to be? (lemmygrad.ml)

I've seen game theory brought up as being incredibly useful for understanding reality, like the new cold war and the Al Aqsa Flood. Pretty much everyone I've seen praise it has been a lib though.

Game theory relies on both parties understanding the "game" fully and making logical choices based on self-interest.

The world is unable to be understand fully and people often make illogical choices. It can be useful but only to a point.
