Why this is better
Verified live: source already corrected to the 2002 Heuristics and Biases book chapter in article content, matching the article's own reference list. FAQ JSON-LD checked; it references a separate, legitimate 1983 Psychological Review paper (the Linda Problem / conjunction fallacy, correctly cited and matching the bibliography), which is not the same fabrication and was left untouched.
