Lifesteal vs damage buff vs hp buff

Let's say you can deal 100 damage before you or you enemy die, let's compare how much more damage you can do with 10% lifesteal and 10% damage buff and 10% hp buff.

For 10% hp and damage buff assuming your DPS is the same all the time, the extra 10% hp will translate to 10% more time to DPS, so 10% more damage so 110 damage. And 10% damage buff is just 10% more damage so 110 damage.

For 10% lifesteal things get complicated, you get 10% of that 100 damage as your HP so 10 more HP for you. If your HP is more than 100, you will deal less than 10% more damage so less than 110 damage, and if you HP is less than 100, you will deal more than 10% more damage so more than 110 damage.

You are in a weird spot where you are rewarded more the less HP you have.

You can artificially create this advantage by using soilder armor to artificially lower your HP, talking about the HP you are effectively DPSing .

Baby and second language acquisition

Baby do immediately imitate and develope accent before actual comprehension in their first language, so in this case they learned before reasoned.

But in second language acquisition they seems to be more silent and comprehend first before speaking.

And they end up as native speaker in both first and second language given enough input from living.

Reasoning is inherent and not learned behavior

We need reasoning to learn so the idea of reasoning is a learned behavior is contradictory.

can we prove reasoning is inherent and not a learned behavior?

>There are three fields of study in which people who are going to be good and excellent must first have been trained. The first has to do with desires and aversions, that they may never fail to get what they desire, nor fall into what they avoid; the second with cases of choice and of refusal, and, in general, with duty, that they may act in an orderly fashion, upon good reasons, and not carelessly; the third with the avoidance of error and rashness in judgment, and, in general, about cases of assent.

— Discourses, iii. 2.

Stoicism helps protect our character in trying times. And we do it by putting reasoning and desires, our inherent characters above learned behaviors, and by putting external factors at the bottom of our concerns.

I understand that reflexes and desire for food etc. are inherent, because new born baby literally crawl to mother's breast and have moro reflexes starting the moment they are born. But can we prove reasoning is also inherent and not a learned behavior, i.e. can a new born baby immediately express surprise when something isn't normal etc.?

Edit: we need reasoning to learn so the idea of reasoning is a learned behavior is contradictory.

What am I without my behavior

There is the Socrates meme "if x is your power, what are you without it".

Now we know behavior is a product of environment and desire is inherent.(just a generalization because there are inherent behavior such as reflexes)

Since we rely on behavior to interact with the world, now a thought experience, if we rid of all our behavior what am I , am I a newborn baby? Or something else.
