The cognitive phenomenon where the presentation of overwhelming evidence actually slows down decision-making and judgment rather than accelerating it. When faced with too much evidence, the mind freezes—unable to process, prioritize, or conclude. This delay is paradoxical: more information should lead to faster, better decisions, but beyond a certain point, it leads to paralysis. Evidence-saturation delay is why juries can deadlock after weeks of testimony, why consumers can't choose among 50 similar products, and why debates about complex issues never end despite mountains of data. The cure is not more evidence but better filtering, which is why experts are valuable: they know what to ignore. The rest of us just drown.
