B. People do not like to act predictably, even with perfect information.

Explanation:

Rational choice theory states that people tend to make logical calculations when they are trying to make choices. This is aimed at making sure that choices made are in line with their objectives.

Therefore people choose the optimal solution and not just the acceptable one.
