If you're discussing a different problem, then it's not the Monty Hall Problem, which we're discussing here.

It's a probabilities logic puzzle, it's not about psychological tricks. Anything of that sort is an extraneous ad hoc hypothesis that you're introducing.

The point is whether, upon the reveal of a goat, you should switch or stick to your original choice. Nothing else matters. What Monty had for breakfast doesn't matter. Whether he likes you or not doesn't matter.
